SUB3hCT: Construction of Hickory Street
Following the last meeting, several of the Council members
asked us to look at alternatives for Hickory Street. In
previous back-up material we had talked about parking lanes and
making the street one-way. Staff began looking at these
options in an effort to follow the transportation plan as
developed in the Development Guide. On the attached map you
will see that Oak and Hickory Street form a major arterial
system for the conveyance of traffic east and west. You will
also note that these two streets eventually comoine into one
street - Oak Street - which leads further west to the freeway
and an underpass at that )uncture. It then extends even
further west toward the airport and the indust-iai high
intensity area that has been contained in the Development Guide
for the last five years. Indeed, even now, Planning and Zoning
is considering enlarging this western intensity area. The
staff has always felt that because of the juncture and existing
overpass at. 135 and the intensity designations In the land use
planning guide, that this will become a major entrance to the
City and a major conduit for east-west traffic from the
industrial area to the rest of the City. This is why this
street should be a major carter and why we're leaning toward a
one-way pair since it Is the most efficient.
At the same time, the staff is always aware of the budget
constraints that we all face. Because Oak and Hickory are only
one block apart and because we know that the streets with
traffic in one direction carry the traffic more efficiently, we
began to look at a system that would allow us to build the
biggest traffic carrying sections and still remain within the
bond fund budget, These were the foundations that led us to
consider Uak and Hickory as a one-way couplet,
Construction of Hickory Memo
October 30, 1986
Page 2
However, the one-way couplet was not the only solution that we
looked at. 'the $10 milliu.t street bond issue provides us with
enough funding to build any of the following road sections;
Section Width Description Savings
37' Three lanes one-way $709000
371-45' Three lanes one-way $500000
(parking on north side between
Avenue C and Avenue A)
45' Ultimately three lanes one-way $289UU0
(continuous parking lane on
north side)
45' Two lanes in each direction $0
(initially could allow for
parking on both sides)
Each of these facilities has some good points and bad points.
The 37' section allows us to carry a large number of vehicles
efficiently. It would also reduce our cost the most. On the
other hand, it makes no provision for parking at all. In the
western areas of Hickory, this may be all right since that is
mostly apartment buildings and accommodations were made in
their parking facilities to provide for one and a half to two
cars per dwelling unit. However, it does not address the needs
of the residential areas further to the east or the commercial
enterprises between Avenue B and Avenue A.
The second section that, varies between 37' and 45' does allow
for parking between Avenue C and Avenue A. While phis would be
very similar to the existing }pattern between Avenue C and
Avenue A, it does not address any needs for parking further
west of Avenue C. Incidentally, this was the initial
suggestion to you several weeks ago.
The next section is 451, however, it would be built somewhat
different than we build our normal sections. It would allow us
to build three lanes, full depth asphalt, which would enable us
to carry any kind of traffic including heavy loads. We would
also build 8' of this width as a thinner section that would be
used only for parking. In all likelihood we would suggest that
this lane be located on the north side of Hickory for its
entire length. This section would allow us to ultimately carry
three lanes of traffic in one direction and allow parking on
one side of the facility. It would allow us to use the most
efficient design for carrying traffic and still meet the
demands for the parking needs.
Construction of Hickory Meso
October 3U, 1986
Page 3
The last section that we looked at is a typical run-of-the-mill
45' section. This section would allow us to build four traffic
lanes. These lanes normally are split to provide two lanes in
each direction. Obviously this loes not allow for as much
traffic carrying capability in one direction. It also reduces
the amount of carrying capability because of the turning
movements, particularly the left-hand turn movements, against
an oncoming flew of traffic. Initially this kind of facility
could be used to provide parking on both sides of the street.
However, as the needs grew and development occurred to the
west, in all likelihood, a decision would have to be made to
reduce parking in the future. When this occurred, the parking
capabilities would be eliminated from the facility.
After hearing the discussions and concerns of the Counc1.1,
staff has gone back and relooked at the options. Since there
seems to be a need for parking along the entire length of the
street, staff would suggest alternative 03. This would allow
the construction of a 37' section at frill depth and ail 8'
section for larking at a lesser depth. Initially this sectio)i
could be marked and striped as a two-way section with parkins,
on one side. This alternative would also save us $28,000. 1).
the summer of 1987, we will begin rebuilding Oak Street and a
similar section could be built. When both streets are
completed, the Council would then have the option of changing
the traffic patterns in the area to a one-way couplet which
would still allow par!•.ing on one side of each street. We would
then be able to meet the demands o£ the future growth to the
west side of the City and still allow for parking for
commercial and residential needs of the citizens along these
new facilities.
We will have a strip map and other information available for
the Council at their meeting. We would be happy to try and
answer a-,ry further questions that they might have.

Defense Room of the Municipal Building.

Hopkins and Riddlesperger
City Manager, City Attorney and City Secretary
ABSENT: Mayor Stephens was out of town on an historical tour,
Council Member Alexander was delayed due to business
• 1. The council convened into the Executive Session to discuss
legal matters.
2. The Council received a report and discussed the status of
the lFase agreement and litigation between the City of Denton and
Maverick Aircraft, Inc, under the Executive Session.
The Council convened into the Work Session at 6;15 p.m.
3. The Council received an interim report from the Economic
Development Task Force,
Mr. Jack Miller, Chairman of the Economic Development Task Force,
reported that the members of the group were Gilbert Bernstein,
Derrell Bulls, Chuck Carpenter, Jerry Cott, John LawhOn,
Charldean Newell, Mary Evelyn Huey, Al Hurley and Bob McGee.
council Member Alexander joined the meeting,
Miller reported that it was recognized that the City was coming to a
point in economic, development where it was needed to sit down and
look at the whole issue. The task force had met with the City
Council in February and since then had met with several qroups and
individuals to discuss economic development for Denton - past,
present and future. The group her) met with City officials, Texas
Power and Light, Lone Star Gas, representatives from the railroads,
and developers and asked them what was positive and/or negative
about Denton. on the positive side it was felt that Denton , an
outstanding quality of life, a diversity of industry and good educa-
tional and medical facilities. It was further felt that Denton was
competitive with other area cities and had a "can do" spirit. on
the negative side the quality of life could erode! Texas currently
had a 10.66 unenployment rate which had affected the entire statel
Denton was locate, in a highly competitive areas there was also a
perceived problem with Denton not being part of the transportation
(trade) zone in relation to freight rates little land was available
with utilities and buii•dings already in place. Due to the US and
state economy, it was • i a buyers market and the city would have to
actively seek out p -cote. Denton was going to have to be more
active and pro-growth,
Denton was in danger of becoming a 'bedroom commu.iity." The task
force felt the timing was righf- for a full time economic development
director and an office which would be a partnership between the
public and private sectors. They would recommend that an Economic
Development office be located at the Chamber of Commerce with 113 of
tho funding being borne by t1. C'ty and 2/3 being borne from the
private sector. At this time, zma 'cask force was asking for rei.c-
tions and input from the COV174il as well as A commitment from the
public sector before solicttimx f~!nrla frvm the private sector,
Council Member Chew stated that he was pleased with the teport. He
was very much pro economic development for Denton and felt this was
a needed step.
Council Member Riddlesperger complemented the teak force and stated
he felt there was a need for a full time professional economic
development person now.
City of Denton C_ty Council Minuted
Meeting of July 15, 1986
Page Two
Council Member Hopkins stated that economic development was one of
the Council's concerns.
Council Member Alexander stated that the establishment of an eco-
nomic development office was a step that needed to be taken and the
council should make a h'.gh priority commitment. Thure should be an
exchange of ideas and comments over the next 5 to 10 years between
the City and the Chamber of Commerce.
Dr. Derrell Bulls, representing thb chamber, stated that the Chamber
appreciated the opportunity to work with the city council to main-
taLn the quality of life in Denton,
Council Member Chew suggested a joint meeting be held with the
Public Utilities Board at the next work session to discuss the
funding for the project,
Mr, Guy MacCracken, an industrial engineer, addressed the Council
and stated that the city was not projecting the image of being
industrially minded.
9. The Council received a roport on the proposed vicious cat
and dog ordinance,
City Manager Lloyd Harrell reported that the development of this
ardirance was precipitated by a series of attacks by dogs. The
Council had begun to question if the present ordinance was stringent
enough. The ordinance before the Council was a draft to be
discussed,
Debra Drayovit^h, City Attorney, reported that she had been advised
by the Council to prepare an ordinance to the maximum penalty
allowed. she then presented a table of the major changes in the
present aii.9 proposed ordinance, She felt the remedy Por vicious dog
attacks should be through civil court without the City being
involved. Another remedy was to hold a hearing for the pet owner
and have the dog removed from the city limits. The proposed ordi-
nance would allow for the destruction of the animal. The present
ordinance stated that the dog must have vicious propeneitie^l in
other words, must have bitten before, This provision was not in the
proposed ordinance) the hearing officer would make the determination
if the dog was vicious. The present ordinance was limited to only
dogs while the proposed ordinance covered dogs and cats. Also, the
present ordinance did not have a time limit on when a compliant
could be filed after an incident) the proposed ordinance stated that
a complaint must be filed within 10 days after the attack, Current-
ly, the City Manager was the hearing officers the proposed ordinance
would specify the City Manager or his designee could appoint a
hearing officer, The current ordinance had no provision addressing
the right to appeal. The proposed ordinance would allow for the
owner to appeal the decision of the hearing officer in District
Court within 5 days, Drayovitch then cited the portion of the
ordinance which delineated what would constitute ordering the
destruction of the animal.
Council Member McAdams asked if the present ordinance did not deal
with this problem adequately.
Council Member Chew responded that the present ordinance gave the
animal one "free bite' to establish vicious propensities, There was
nothing in the present ordinance which allowed for the destructioi,
of a harmful animal. It was impossible to regular the provision
that the animal be removed from th,s City limits.
Council Member McAdams suggested that a substantial fine might be
levied on the pet owner for each day the animal was not removed from
town,
Council Member Alexander stated that proposed ordinance might be
modified so thiit the hearing officer make the determination of who
paid the fees if then charges were found to be frivolous.

4RESENTI Mayor Pro Tem Alfordi Council Members Alexander, Chew,
McAdams, Hopkins and Riddlesperger
City Manager, City Attorney and City Secretary
ABSENTS Mayor Stephens was out of town on an historical tour
1. The Council held a presentation of awards for beautifi-
cation effort to the City to Mr. Tom Irby in the residential
category and Mr. Montt) Mason, Jack Schmitz and Son Funeral Home, in
the ,;ommercial category.
Bob Tickner, Superintendent of Parke, presented the award to Mr.
Trm Irby, Mr. Monte Mason was not present to receive the award for
oaC4 Schmitz and Son Funeral Home.
2. The council held an appearance by Mr. Don Whitmore regard-
4ng the City of Denton utility bill;ng system.
Mr, Don Whitmore appeared before tho Council and stated that he had
lived in Denton for 11 years and was a graduate of North Texas State
University, even though he was on an average billing plan, he tied
received past due notices and cancellation notices relating to the
and of the year adjustment bill for his utilities. He felt that the
notification slips wets bad public relations for the City.
3. The Council considered approval of a request by Mr, and
Mrs. William A. Elliott to waive a pr,, rata fee.
Mrs. Elliott stated that they had purchased a house on Mayhill Road
in order to move in with and take care of her mother, At the timo
they bought the house they were told they could have City of oenton
water. They had called the City about getting water and were told
that they could tie on to the system. As a result of this, they had
signed away the rights to an existing well. When they were ready to
have City water, they were then told there would be a pro rata f.ew
charged. As this was an expense which they had not planned for,
they were hoping for some type of compromise or a waiver of the fee,
Debra Drayovitch, City Attorney, reported that, as a general rule,
it was not legally appropriate to waive requirements mandated by
ordinance,
City Manager Lloyd Harrell repotted that staff had tried to work
with the Elliotts and apologized for any breakdown in communica-
tions, It would be possible to let the Elliotte tie on and then
work out a payment plan for the pro rata charges.
Bob Nelson, Director of Utilities, reported that staff got calls
every day from developers and realtors regarding utility service,
After the Elliotts had called and given the address to the water
utility, it was discovered that the extension of service would
require a pro rata fee. In an attempt to prevent this type of
problem in the future, procedures had been changed so that a plat of
the property was requirsc! prior to determining whether or not
utilities could be extended or if there was a pro rats fee or not.

the City of Denton zoning ordinance, 2-1812
The Mayor opened the public hearing,
Mr, Jim Hensworth, representing Holbert and Wyatt, spoke in favor
stating that instead of 6 acres, only 4.02 acres of the parcel would
be used for commercial property. The petitioners had met with the
City staff in the predesign phases regarding utilities and zoning.
Staff had preferred the petitioner request planned development
zoning, one vequirement was a 25 feet setback on the propertyr
however, due to the shape of the lot and other utility easements,
this setback would not allow for a parking strip in front of the
business. His clients were requesting straight commercial zoning.
If this petition were approved, there would be 2.09 acres in phase
two of the development as commercial, There was no site plan for
the property at this time.
Council Member Riddlesperger asked what type of easements was Mr.
Hensworth referring to.
Hensworth responded Texas Power and Light, etc,
Council Member McAdams stated that the reason for preferring a
planned development was to protect the city should the property
change hands prior to actual development. Setbacks, however, were
normally negotiable.
Hei,aworth stated that his clients could not build any structure on
the easement property but did noed the parking strip in front of the
automobile dealership,
Mrs. H. W, Pockrus spoke in favor stating that she owner] a business
in this area and felt this would be a good addition,
No one spoke in opposition.
The mayor closed the public hearing,
Cecile Carson, Urban Planner, reported that the parcel was located
in a low intensity area with high intensity to the north and north-
west and moderate intensity to the south. The proposal was for
straight commercial zoning on the entire 6 acre parcel. There had
been some confusion regarding the staff's recommendation for a
planned development. The issue was land use and not the easements,
The proposal as presented was acceptabler however, the concern was
for commercial zoning on a major thoroughfare.
Council Member Alexander asked what the time delay would be if the
petitioner were to change the request from commercial to planned
develupment.
Carson responded that the request, could go before the Planning and
zoning commission in August. Staff could double advertise and the
petition would be back to the City Council in late August.
Council Member McAdams stated that she was not questioning the
commercial use as presented, but the property could sell, if the
petitioner were to agree to request planned development zoning,
would it be legally correct not to require the request to go back
through the entire process,
Debra Drayovitch, City Attorney, responded that a planned develop-
ment was totally different from commercial zoning and the request
would have to go back to the Planning and zoning Commission,

Chew motion, Riddlesperger second to approve the commercial zoning
for the 4,02 acres. Motion carried 5 to 1 with Council Member
McAdams casting the 'nay" vote.
C, The Council held a public hearing on the petition of
Dr. Bill Cudd requesting a change in zoning from the single family
(SF-10) district to the planned development (PD) classification on
an 18.24 acre tract located at the northeast corner of U.S. Highway
380 ar.d Old North Road. The property is further described as a
• tract in the Caswell Carter Survey, Abstract 275, and the R. B.
Longbottom Survey, Abstract 775. If the planned development is
approved, it will permit the development of an office park, Z-1814
The Mayor opened the public hearing,
Dr, Bill Cudd, the petitioner, requested that the public hearing be
postponed until August 5 as there was not a full Council present.
Riddlesperger motion, Chew second to continue the public hearing on
August 5. Motion carried unanimously,
D, The council held a public hearing on the petition of
Don M. Bryant requesting a variance of proviaionm of the City of
Denton Subdivision and Land Development Regulations requiring
sidewalk, paving, curb and gutter, and drainage improvements for
perimeter streets adjacent to proposed subdivisions. Two 3.0 acre
lots located adjacent and west of Hickory Hill Road between Gibbons
Road and FM 1830 are proposed. The property is located in the City
of Denton's area of extraterritorial jurisdiction (LTJ) and single
family development is anticipated. V-30
Ms. Alice Creamer spoke in favor stating that she had sold this
property to Mr, Bryant. At the time of the sale, she had contacted
David Ellison of the City staff and had been informed that a survey
of the property was needed, Mr. Ellison had asked if roads were to
be cut and she had responded no.
Mr. Don Bryant, the petitioner, spoke in favor stating that he was
co-owner of the property. It was his intention to 'wild only no
home on the property in which he would live. In March he had called
the city regarding what he would have to do to obtain a building
permit. He was told that the property would have to be platted.
The first plat was submitted in April. All questions had been
addressed except the road issue. He had made every effort to comply
with the subdivision rules and regulationer however, he was request-
ing a variance due to the financial hardship involved with putting
in a City standard road. He had received bids of $19,000 to 27,000
for the road work. The Planning and Zoning Commission had recom-
mended to bond the ;oadt however, the coat would be over 35% of the
value of the property,
Council Member McAdams naked Mr. Bryant if he was aware that this
was a standard requireme,;t for all developers and that if he did not
pay for the road, all the taxpayers for Denton would have to,
Mr, Dick Kelsey, attorney representing Mr. Bryant, spoke in favor
stating that the property was located 8 miles from Denton at the
outside edge of the extraterritorial jurisdiction line. There were
no streets in the parcel. The City had no plans to annex this area
in the foreseeable future. To require city standards for the road
was far beyond the scope of the law,
McAdams motion, Chow second to table the request.
As the public hearing had not been concluded, the motion and second
were withdrawn.

Mr, Dave Keenan, co-owner of the property, spoke in favor stating
that when the land was bought, the adjacent property was also sold.
A building permit had been obtained and a house was currently under
construction on the adjacent property. There should be equal treat-
ment.
No one spoke in opposition.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
David Ellison, Senior Planner, reported that if council did not feel
that all technical and legal issues had been addressed, it would be
appropriate to table the request for variance.

Meeting of July 150 1986

H. The Council considered adoption of an ordinance
amending Article iI of Chapter 4 of the Code of ordinances of the
City of Denton, Texas; by amending the procedures relating to
vicious cats and dogs; providing for the impoundment thereof;
providing for the destruction thereof upon notice and hearing;
providing for a penalty in the maximum amount of $200.00 for viola-
tions thereofj and providing for a severabllity clause.
Dr, Nat Adams stated that the proposed ordinance had a bias against
dog owners and she felt that false accusations of vicious cats and
doge would arise. The provision regarding examination of the
victim's wounds by a physician was not workable unless the accuser
must pay. Regarding confinement of a suspected vicious animal,
there should be a provision for sick animals who needed treatment
during confinement. The term "viciousness" was not well dtfined.
She felt the burden of proof should be on the accuser, Any dog
could biter but one bite was not enough to call the animal vicious,
Council Member Chew responded that the ordinance applied to animals
who were at large,
Me, Vickie Christianson, President of the Denton Humane Society,
stated that anyone could file a complaint as it was not required
that the victim be involved, A preliminary investigation should be
required to ascertain if the incident warranted the impoundment of
the animal. The discrepancy between the phrases 'at large" and
stray" needed to be clarified. There was alai a problem with the
payment of the impound and court fees if the animal were found not
to be vicious. The proposed ordinance had no provisions to address
the severity of the bites; there were different degrees of bites.
Council Member Riddlesperger asked about the need for a preliminary
investigation of any dog bite incident prior to beginning the
hearing process.
Debra Drayovitch, City Attorney, reported that her staff had looked
at eight or so other ordinances and not one had included a prelimin-
ary investigation; additional personnel would be required to conduct
such invastigations,
Mr, Mark Wiser stated that his daughter had been attacked by a dog.
While he did not hate animals, there seemed to be a bias in favor of
the criminal and not the victim. Under the current ordinance, the
last recourse was to have the animal removed from the City limits
which, in effect, shipped the problem to another City. In the
proposed ordinance, he did not feel that an Animal Control officer
would be the appropriate hearing officer,
Me. Vera Knobe stated that she owned a Doberman and German shepherd
for protection. If a complaint was filed, it would be difficult to
prove that the attack animal was not your dog,
Mr. Acker stated that the intent of the current ordinance wac to
remove the dog, and he felt the pet owner should be given a chance
first and a subsequent attack would warrant the destruction of the
animal. He further felt that the paymenk of the fees associated
with holding an animal pending a hearing wa,- unfair. Should the
animal be found innocent of the charges, the owner still had to pay
the fees and he felt this was punishing the innocent to get to the
guilty. The proposed ordinance did not address the issue of provo-
cation of an animal; in his opinion, if provoked, the animal would
be defensive, not vicious. There were massive opportunities to
abuse this ordinance. Mr. Acker suggested that a medical doctor and
veterinarian be brought in as consultants for a rewrite of the
ordinance,
Mr, Doug Wolfe stated that a leash law was already in place, If
that ordinance had been enforced by Animal Control, there would not
have been a problem. The current ordinances should be enforced.
City of Denton city council Minutes
Meeting of July 150 1996
Page Nine
City Manager Lloyd Harrell reported that the current ordinance had
been enforced in regard to the last dog bite incident. The animal
had been picked up and brought in to Animal Control and the owner
had been fined,
Mrs, Antonilli, Emerson street, stated that she felt the current
ordinance should be enforced,
Me. Michele Baldwin stated that no one wanted a vicious dog. If her
dog were impounded and contacted parvo o.r heart worms and subse-
quently died prior to a hearing and was then found innocent, would
the City replace her dog?
Mr. Steve Johnson, guard dog trainer, stated that many of the attack
dogs which werr used for protection were very expensive animals, It
would be easy for a person to file a complaint on one of these dogs
thereby having the animal impounded for 10 days and leaving the
owner defenseless.
Alexander motion, Riddlesperger second to table the ordinance.
Council Member Chew asked if the Veterinarian Association, Humane
Society and Mr. Weisner could give input to the City staff on their
views prior to the ordinance coming before Council.
Debra DrayoviLch, City Attorney, reported that a task force could be
formed including these groups in reviewing the proposed ordinance
prior to Council consideration,
Motion to table carried unanimously.

for 30 minute parking on the west side of Locust street from Walnut
to Mulberry.
Rick Svehla, Assistant City Manager, reported that a number of
complaints had been received regarding the congestion on Walnut
Street. Staff had considered removing all parking as well as angle
parking,
Mr. Charles Muirhead stated that he owned a business on South Elm
and the problem was traffic density rather than parking. The mayor
sources of congestion were the delivery v9hicles at Ellingtona and
Denton County Independent Hamburger Company and the drive-through
customers at the First State Bank. Due to the location of his
business, the removal of parking would put him out of business.
Another option might be to make Walnut Street one-way from Locust to
Elm or to postpone taking any action until the First State Bank
moved the drive-in windows to their new location and see what impact
that would have on the congestion.
Alexander motion, Chew second to table this ordinance for an indefi-

David Ellison, Senior Planner, reported that major development
proposals were being received in this area. The owners were seeking
4 or 5 separate zoning petitions. There was limited general retail
zoning being requested but rather mostly single family (SF-7 and
SF-10). This was a low intensity area and Mr. Compton already had
been granted general retail zoning for his property. Staff had
requee-toad 50 feet setbacks due to the proposed southern extension of
Loop 288. The owners did not want planned development zoning as
they had stated that they would have the property zoned and then
• sell to developers. The planned development zoning would be too
restrictive.

Linnie McAdams spoke of the good points of TWU. She shared that she
ran into a new TWU student at the grocery store and the stuaent told
her that the faculty and staff had been so very helpful. She
recalled the help the university personnel gave to her when she was
a student returning to school after being out of school for several
years.
She indicated that the faculty and staff made her educational
experience a real pleasure and that TWU was a very special place for
women, "Aside from that, just saying that it is a marvelous place
to be, and it truly is, TWU does provide a unique service for
women," She indicated that TWU offers women unique leadership
opportunities that they might not have in any other university,
"out of that have come some really tremendous women, who are leaders
in our society today. TWU is the largest and the beat in several
categories" stated Council Member McAdams, She further stated that
Denton had two (2) excellent universities and did not see why we
would want to, or should give up either one of them.

Council Member McAdams stated that TWU has no rival in its ability
to offer educational opportunities for women, She stated chat there
are certain things that can not be maintained if TWU and North Texas
State University are merged. Council Member McAdams insisted that
the services that TWU offers are needed and must continue to be
offeree. "I for one do not want to as* us give that up, not for one
second. We deserve it here in Denton, ano I want to see us keep it."
Council Member Riddlesperger said he has known these institutions
for fifty years. He received a degree from North Texas Teachers
college in the 1930'x. He taught at both NTSU and TWU, He spoke of
their differences and said the idea of consolidation does not make
sense. He compared the combining of two different denominations of
churches. He noted that the differences in emphasis on education
needs to be separate. He stated that TWU fills a real need in
education and sees ways that the community could be enriched through
the two universities cooperating together but does not support the
merger. He stated that this cause is important to all,
Council Member Alexander said he woulu like to state his views on
the subject, unbiasealy, He stated that Texas Woman's University is
the reason why he is in Denton. He came to teach at TWU in 1980.
He thought about the unique role the university had .o play in the
history of Texas. He said TWU is a unique inatitut:on and deserves
to remain autonomous for the welfare of the people of the State of
Texas. He said he appreciated the comments of the Council and
others. He urged all to continue to make the point clear to others
across the state as the issues are dealt with at state level,
Council Member Chew joined the meeting and stated that he too
supports TWU and is opposed to the merger of TWU and NTSU.
Mayor Pro Tom Alford said he wished it was possible for him to say
the things that the others have said, He stated that there is
another area that must be looked at, He Said the merger of TWU and
NTSU would be devastating to the economy of Denton, Texas. That is
why the Council must support the autonomy of TWO. He stated that we
need TWU because of the number of people it employs, the dcllars in
salaries that it brings to our community, the tax dollars that are
spent by TWU faculty and staff, and the sales tax. Everything of
the economy in Denton revolves around our universities. He said he
does not want it to be one university, we need two universities in
Denton. And that is why the Council feels that they must urge the
citizens of Denton to support the autonomy of TWU, He stated that
they need to go to Austin on August 81 to let the people know their
feelings on the situation. We need TWU desperately. He said that
buses may be sponsored by businesses or inuivioualb to go to Austin
for support of TWU remaining autonomous.
Council Member MCAdums stated that a TWU graduate has been scheduled
to go on a shuttle flight and that young lady plans to take a banner
from TWU. She said that TWU has done so much for her.
Mayor Pro Tom Alford stated that he would like to recognize, before
a vote is taken, that we have administration, faculty, staff, and
students and that is a total covering of Lhe university people that
are here.
The vote was taken here. On roll call vote, McAdams "aye,"

Mayor Pro Teas Alford made a motion to adjourn to the Civil Defense
room to continue the meeting.
2. The Council held a discussion and consideration of funding
for the proposed Economic Development Office.
City Manager Lloyd Harrell presented background information.
He stated that the City should actively promote economic development
in Denton by 'going after it.' To that and, staff recommends a full
time Economic Development Director be hired under the Denton Chamber
of Commerce. He stated that funding would be 1/3 public (City)
funds and 2/3 Chamber (private) funds, it is expected that the
Chamber will provide the secretarial and staff support necessary for
the proposed Lconomic Development Office as well as cities space,
Mr. Harrell indicated that staff was very supportive of this
proposal because:
1) Council wants economic development in order to help
keep taxes and utility rates from rising.
2) It would help to keep Denton from becoming a "bedroom"
community.
3) This recommendation would put a minimal strain on the
City Budget.
4) The recommendation reflects research of other
communities and the proposed arrangement has been very
successful elsewhere.
T;^e City Manger stressed that we must monitor the Public Dollar.
The following conditions were discussed:
1) A Public Utility Board member and city Council Member
should be on the Economic Development Advisory Board.
2) The City should show positive support for the chambers
long term commitment, however the City will renew
their financial commitment on a year to year basis.
3) The pledge of City funds must be seen as a sign for
the Chamber to go ahead and raise the other 2/3,
Mayor Pro Tem Alford agreed with the need to have input into this
process and the fact that the City's financial commitment mus' be
renewed each year.
Council Member Chew stated that oconornic development is a "top
priority" with the council.
Council Member Alexander agreed.
Council Member McAdams stated that in the current economy in 'T'exas
you have to 'go get" to be successful.
Roland Laney of the Public Utility Board stated that the PUB
"wholeheartedly' supported this proposal but would like to see the
safeguards that the City Manager expresser] implemented. He also
stated that he would like to see that the City has more input into
how money would be spent. Mr. Laney would like for the City to wait
to release funds to the Chamber until the chamber had raised their
part of the funding, me also supported the notion that the City
renew its financial commitment on a year to yeat basis.
Council Member McAaar stated that she woulA like to see new
industry in Denton bf, ,use they might purchase electricity from the
City, She suggeste,, that the council might also look at the
Hotel/Motel Tax as a possible source of funding for the Economic
Development office, She asked for suggestions for other funding
sources,
Mayor Pro Tem Alford stated that he knows of industries that are
leaving the area and stated that we must take an active role in
retaining them and suggested that the proposed Economic Development
office would be a positive step.

Meeting of July 22, 1486
Page Five
Nancy Boyd of the Public Utility Board expressed her concern that
"customer' money was being used and asked if the proposed funding
could be taken from "tax" money.
Council Member Chew stated that there was none available.
Council Member Alexander stated that the proposed arrangement
between the City and Chamber was not unusual and had been very
successful in other Cities and continued by saying that we must
compete with private utilities. He continued in support of the
1/3 City, V3 Chamber funding formula. He suggested that the Cities
contributi m could be phased out over a number of years as the
private sector became more active. He said that we must go ahead,
and it must work.
John Thompson of the Public Utility Board suggested that positive
publicity would help to promote this concept by motivating the
private sector and getting the public behind it.
Council Member Alexander stated that we need the Economic
Development Office and that he likes the idea of a partnership
between the public and private sectors. He stressed the need to
monitor the program and to be able to renew the City's financial
commitment on a year to year basis.
Council Member Alexander would like to see the City Council added to
the list of bodies that the Chamber would report to in this area.
Council Member Chew agreed but stated the the City must be willing
to commit over the long run. He does not want the City t.- phase the
Office of ECOnom+c Development out of its budget.
'We want people to come here. If they don't we won't be able to
afford to live here ourselves. Taxes will be too high,"
Roland Laney of the Public Utility Board stated that the PUB would
develop a resolution to bring back to the City Council in support of
thin proposal and that they would provide this necessary funding.
Council Member Chew "charged' the PUB to make a positive resolution,
The Council then convened into the Special Called Meeting at

commission created to report back to the City Council.
The City Council the recognized Mr. Roland Laney of the Public
Utility Board. The discussion returned to the consideration of
funding for an Economic Development Office.
Mr. Laney stated that he felt a need for more direct City control
but again emphasized his feeling that this should be a partnership
between the City and the Chamber.
He stated that he felt that the agreement between the City and the
Chamber should stipulate that the contribution from the City would
be contingent on the Chamber raising their part of the money.
The City Manager stated that he feared that if Council varied too
far from the recommendation presented by the Economic Development
Task Force, that the City council might jeopardize the possibility
of getting this proposal off the ground,
council Member McAdams stated that she agreed and that she felt that
the City could have input into the Economic Development Office by
designating a representative to the Economic Development Advisory
Committee at the chamber and that the Council could reconsider its
financial commitment in a year,
Council Member Chew stressed that the city is only funding the
proposal at a 1/3 to 2/3 ratio.
Council Member Riddlesperger stated `hat he would like to study the
information available but that he agrees with the basic premise of
the proposal,
Council Member Alexander felt that the city should be in the loop
and receive all information regarding the financial status of the
Economic Development Office and that if he could be assured that the
information flow would be good, he would support the proposal,
Council Member Chew emphasized that he hoped the Public Utilities
Board would agree with the recommendation. The City council should
be responsible for future funding sources.
Council Member Riddlesperger stated that he did not want to imply a
five (5) year financial commitment but that he was satisfied with
the proposal to review finances on a year to year basis.
The City Attorney, Debra Drayovitch reminded the City council that
Betty McKean, Assistant City Manager and Bryan Stuart,
Administrative Assistant would bring a contract to the city council
that would encompass the restrictions that they were discussing and
that that instrument was the appropriate for enforcing thei!
concerns,
4. The Council considered approval of a resolution appointing
the City Judge and Assistant Judges for the Municipal Court.
The City Attorney, Debra Drayovitch stated that two (2) people were

had been addresued satisfactorily.

' 1. The council received a presentation by representatives of
Charles Willis and Associates on the airport master plan.
Bill Perkins, representing Charles Willis and Associates, reported
that for the past 9 months his firm had been preparing an airport
master plan. An in-depth survey of the airport market had been
accomi~I ished to determine how Denton related to the market and
compering airports. Mr. Perkins presented charts of various
forecasts for the Denton Municipal Airport including total
operations, population, aircraft based at Denton Municipal Airport
and local/itinerate operations.* Willis and Associates was
projecting rapid urbanization between northern Fort Worth and
southern Denton, in the Roanoke area. There would be a modification
of the role of the Denton airports it was going to be in a posltion
to assume substantial aviation demand and in a very favorable
competitive posture. Currently there were 51000 feet of runway and
a precision II.S (instrument landing system) approach at the
airport. Only six other airports in the metroplex had ILS
approaches (DPW, Love, Meacham, Addison, Aero Valley, and Mangum),
Two major aviation modifications would need to be made to keep pace
with the projected population growth of Denton over the next 20
years. These were a runway extension of 1,000 feet and construction
of a secondary 40000 by 75 feet runway. Willis and Associates would
also recommend that the secondary runway be constructed in the
1993-1994 time frame. It was a very important positive that Denton
had reserved a lot of land around the airport; the excess land could
be used for aviation related Industries. Also the noise exposure
contours were acceptable and restricted to the airport itself.
There was a real opportunity for Denton to have a high quality jet
operation based at the airport. Mr. Perkins concluded by stating
that his firm wanted to stream the exciting opportunity which
existed at the Denton Municipal Airport in terms of the market and
existing facilities.
Agenda items 92 and 13 were reported together,
2. The council received a report on leasing activities at the
airport,
3. The Council received a report on the status of Federal
grants at the airport,
Clint Lynch, Airport Manager, reported that a Federal grant In the
amount of $226,000 had been received to build three access taxiways
and a helipad. This grant was 1986 money and must be under bid no
later than September 30. The taxiways would allow access to an
additional 80 acres of land. Lynch then presented a breakdown of
the costs for the projects. Lynch concluded by stating that the
staff was already being contacted by persons interested in leasing
space at the airport.

1. The Council received a report from city of Denton represen-
tatives to the Texas Municipal Power Agency Board of Directors.
Dr. Roland Vela, ;lember of the TMPA Board of Directors, reported
that an operating budget of 078,0001000 had been approved. This
amount was 117,0000000 less than the previous year's budget due to
reductions in mining operations anel no new construction projects.

that
wouldattorneys
the all was
be held during stated
several
days regarding a change in venue for the case. TMPA would prefer
the legal proceedings be held in Austin rather than Dallas.
Dr. Vela reported that Mr, Ed Wagoner, General Manager of TMPA, h:d
proposed some innovative financing. Instead of 30 year bonds, the
proposal was for 30 days bond with interest var,,,ing on a 24 hour
basis. A bank in Australia would be the holding bank and put up the
funds. A negative was that the bonds could be called in 30 days,
2. The Council received a report on the 1986 City Council
goals and priorities:
11 Financing capital improvements 2nd half

City Manager Lloyd Harrell gave i reviow of the goals notebooks and
stated that staff had tried to assure that the goals became
organizational goals as well Cotincil goals, work teams had been
organized to study and report on each particular goal.
John McOrane, nirector of Finance reported on goal tl (Financing
Capital Improvement& 2nd half) stating that this should actually be
Financing Capita' +i,provements lot half. Regarding the Planning and
!:.:~""~R~"'~'-R.',`~ °'.'r;`~ri`R's fa.-. _•erc' rn,Nr

zoning Commission Capi+:al lmprovement Program plan, the financing
would require a bond etar,.tion and the Selling of bonds, If the sale
of the bond was staggorod over a five year period, no increase in
the current tax rate would be required. The steps to achieve this
goal would be the establishment of a CIP committee who would review
the plan as submitted by the Planning and Zoning Commission. After
review and modification, if required, the plan would be resubmitted
to the Planning and zoning Commission for approval prior to final
approval by the City Council. The CIP committee could then "sell"
the bond election to the voting public. Staff would suggest holding
the prorosed election no later than December 15.
McGrane further reported that goal i8 (Finance operations) had been
outlined in the budget calendar for council,
Debra Drayovitch, City Attorney, reported on goal M6 (Flow Hospital
lot half) that thirteen action steps needed to be completed prior to
the actual closing on the hospital. Only three of these would
require action on the part of the City. i' action steps listed on
the backup material provided would be dour; or triggered by Flow
Hospital. The County was responsibl, or advising Flow of
eligibility standards to be used if Hill-Burton was not deatted.
Regarding the action Stup that the City Council and the County
commissioners provide a written schedule of medical malpractice
claims pending, this would be cut as close as could be to the actual
closing. Drayovitch further reported that she was unable to give a
closing date. The pleading had not be filed in District Court nor
had the financing been arranged. She estimated that closing would
not be accomplished for another two months. A nee issue had arisen
regarding whether or not the deed should include a reverter clause
or deed restrictions. Strong feelings had been expressed by the
Council that the hospital should remain non-profit. A reverter
clause would require the new corporation to obtain City Council and
Commissioner's Court approval prior to using the facility for other
than hospital used. A positive for deed restrictions was that Flow
could obtain financing] a negativo was that Council would have to
take the matter to Catrt to enforce the deed restrictions and the
right to use the hospital would be lost if the corporation
defaulted. Under a reverter clause, the City and County would take
back the property if the corporation defaulted but would assume all
debt, which could be substantial.
Council Member Alexander asked if such a reverter clause would make
it difficult for the hospital to borrow money.
Drayovitch responded that, if the reverter clause included a proviso
that the city and County would get the hospital back in case of
default, it would not impair the hospital's obtaining loans.
Steve Brinkman, Director of Parke and Recreation, reported on goal
17 (Recreatior, Center) that the timing of this iseuu had been
touched on in the report on the Capital Improvements Program. The
land had been purchased and cleared. Specifications had been drawn
for two options: a 20,000 square feet facility and a 30,000 square
feet facility. The members of the Parke and Recreation Board felt
the strategy of going for 3 smaller centers at a cost of $11200,000
ea+:h as opposed to 2 centers at a coat of $1,800,000 each was a
better way of resolving this issue. The idea was to get all three
centers in one bond election. There were other policy questions
which would need to be addressed regarding alternatives to funding
the centers other than through bonds. The operating and maintenance
costs for the centers had been calcu:ated with *today's dollars"
plugged in.
3. The council held a discussion and considered appointments
to the Special Citizens Advisory Committee on capital improvements.
This ita;n was taken under the Executive Session.

HISTORY
..r r
Final annexation proceedings on this property is scheduled for
November 4, 1986.
The adjacent property was annexed in 1986 and zoned planned
development for multi-family, zero lot line, and single fam;.ly-7
land uses.
ANALYSIS
This property is located in a low intensity area. These areas
represent our primary housing areas and their purpose is to
insure the overall intensity balance in the City. The single
family-7 with minimum 71000 square foot lots extends the single
family land use in the planned development to the west. The
additional acreage will help to insure the integrity of the
neighborhood.
The proposal does not violate any Development Guide policies and
is consistent with low intensity policies.

PLTITIONER: Roger Barrett, Metroplex Engineering Corpora-
on representing 'l'oamy Corporaation, stated that the street
paving would be addressed during the platting stage. He
said tnat they ace tryJn to continue contiguous growth
within the city. He sail chat the only way to get Improve-
ments In these areas is to annex and it is the petitioners
invent to do improvemants.
Mr, Claiborne asked If Edwards Road was Included in this
annexation, Mr. Ellison said yes and would be a city re-
sponsibility. He said that If the property is not annexed
the perimeter street paving requirements would still be re-
quired but the county would have to maintain the road. He
said that the petitioner could develop SP-7 land use in
this area without annexation and toning. He said that the
procedure is to submit a plat and most the requirements in

currence with the annexation is for permanent zoning on the
property. He said that their reasoning for SP-7 zoning is
because the planned development to the west was approved
for SF-7 land use and this case would make the area contig-
uous. He said that because of the time frame needed In a
planned development they were unable to do a planned devel-
oppment because the planned development to the west will be

are eligible for designation. This area is the site of many
substantial homes built by the business and civic leaders of
early Denton. This area is eligible for the establishment of a
hi sturic district for the following reasons:
1. Many structures in the area are architecturally significant.
2. The area has value as part of the social, cultural, and
hi storical heri tage of the City of Denton.
3. The area is identified with a person or persons who
contributed to the culture and development of the City.

1. Approve petition.
The following alternatives have been suggested for the
composition of the proposed Oak-Hickory Historic District;
a. Exclusion of Opposing_Property _Owngrs. Some property
owners in the areadave requeste3"r."Fiat their property
not be included in the proposed district. Approval of
such a proposal could lead to a "saw toothed" district
which, if approved by the City Council, will be forwarded
to the National Register for consideration as a National
Register district. Tho definition of historic districts
as "geographically definable areas possessing significant
concentration, linkage, or continuity of buildings,
structures, sites, areas or land which are united by
architectural, historical, archaelogical or cultural
importance or significance" makes it unlikely that the
Oak-Hickury area would be accepted as a National Register
DistxA ct in a "saw toothed" form.
b. Addition of Properti_es_Located_on South Side of-Hickory
Street.J Some property ownerson the south side of
Hickory Street have expressed a desire to be included
in the district. 'Phis property could not be considered
for inclusion at this time due to legal requirements
for notification procedures but could be added to the
district at a later date.
c. Del9tion of Properties Located on North _Side of Hickory
Street. l't has been suggesfe-F hat the property 'on"
uic'kory Stree% is not of the same historical and archi-
tectural sfgnif±cance as that of Oak Street and as s•.ch
should be excluded from the proposed district. This
argument can be made; however, excluding these proper-
ties would severly weaken the district. These properties
are historically and architecturally significant, in their
own r.tght. Furthermore, removing them from the proposed
district would put the structures in the interior of the
district at risk. The properties located on Hickory
Street are zoned multi - family (MH-1) and as such may be
demolished and replaced by potentially incompatible
structures if district standards are not in place.

UAK-HICKURY HISTORIC DISTRICT
DISTRICT PRESERVATION PLAN
Presented Pursuant to
Article 28A-14 (f)
Appendix B, Zoning Ordinance
Code of Ordinances of the City of Denton
The City of Denton has declared it to be public policy to protect,
enhance, preserve, and use historic landmarks and declared that such
a policy leads to the culture, prosperity, education, and general
welfare of the people of the city (Article 28A-2). Integral to the
carrying out of Oose purposes is the creation of Historic Districts,
and the technical requirements for the creation and administration
of Historic Districts is stated in detail in the Code of Ordinances
of the City of Denton.
It should be noted that the Denton Ordinance has been certified by
the U, S. Department of the Interior.
The City of Denton Historic Preservation Plan, adopted by the
City Council in 1985, states that a major goal of the city is the
creation of Historic Districts, and the plan singles out Oak Street
as one area in which it would be desirable to create a Historic
District.
West Oak Street from-Williams to Welch is what was referred to by
citizens in earlier years as "Silk Stocking Row," Beginning in
the late nineteentn century, a number of substantial private homes
were built along that five-block stretch. The same situation, to
a slightly less affluent degree, pertained on West Hickory Street.
As the evolution of the streetscape occurred, some remodeling took
place, and some new construction occurred. As a consequence, that
five block area of West Oak Street, the north side of West Hickory
Street, Williams Street, Denton Street, and part of the south side
of Pearl Street, contains representative architecture from the late
nineteenth and most of the twentieth century.
Thus, from the origins of West Oak Street and West Hickory Street
and because of their later evolution, the creation of the Oak-Hickory
Historic District will substantially further the goals of public
policy set forth by the City of Denton.

1. ZONING CLASSIFICATION OF USES
It must be remembered that inclusion within a Historic
District, like individual Historic Landmark designation,
is an overlay zoning, in which property retains its basic
zoning classification.
The majority of structures on West Uak Street were in place
before the City of Denton enacted its first zoning code. As
a consequence there are several nonconforming uses of land
within the district. In 1968, in a city-wide rezoning, the
area was designated as Multi-Family 1 {low density a artments
being the primary land use under that classification . In
1976, at the request of the West Oak Street Association, the
City of Denton began the pollcy of permitting voluntary back-
zoning on West Oak Street to the Single Family classification
without payment of the customary fees. As a consequence, the
Oak Street part of the area now is about evenly divided be-
tween Multi-Family and Single Family classification. The
distribution of those two classifications is uneven; however,
several blocks are now, in effect, spot-zoned Multi-Family.
It is recommended that the City Council continue to encoue
back-zoning to Single Family to reduce as much as possibleathe
inequities of this situation. It is also recommended that the
City Council allow the owners of property within the Historic
District on the.north side of Hickory Street and on Williams,
Denton, and Pearl Streets to petition for similar back-zoning
without payment of the customary fees.
It is also recommended that the staff of'the Planning and
Development Office of the City of Denton srrive to reduce
nonconforming uses within the Historic District as they are
able to review them.
In any application for construction or remodeling, ppetitioners
are advised that the City of Denton will be guided by "Archi-
tectural Standards for Existing and Proposed Structures in
Historic Districts," passed by the Historic Landmark Commis-
sion on March 1U, 1986, which is hereby attached by reference
to this Uak-Hickory Historic District Preservation Plan.

II. BUILDING CU DE REQUIREMENTS
No major revisions of the Building Code are envisioned, except
as they may be indicated by "Architectural Standards for Exist-
ing and Proposed Historic Districts."
It is recommended that the Building Code Inspector undertake
an examination of the Building Code to recommend changes that
would make it possible to move historic structures into the
Uak-Hickory Historic District, should such an action be found
desirable in the future.
III. SIGN REGULATIUNS
The "Architectural Standards for Existing and Proposed
Historic Districts" makes the following remarks on sign
regulation:
A. No permanent or temporary detached sign will be allowed
in the Historic District, except signs announcing con-
struction or the sale of th'e property or political signs
no larger than 18" x 2411 at times as allowed by the City
of Denton.
B. Permanent attached signs shall meet the following
guidelines:.
1 They must be architecturally integrated with the
structure;
1. Their placement must not obscure significant
architectural or ornamental elements of the
structure;
3. The sign and the size of the lettering on the sign
must be proportional to the size of the building;
4. The color of the sign and its lettering must be
compatible with the structure;
C. Attachments which have the effect of serving as
advertising, including but not limited to banners, flags,
and balloons, must be approved by the Historic Landmark
Commission, except for flags of the United States and the
State of Texas, which shall be of a size and placement
appropriate to the structure.

IV. PARKING REGULATIONS
It is recommended that the City Council examine alternatives
that would have the effect of limiting parking, particularly
on Hickory Street, to minimize the negative effects of the
overflow of vehicles from the large multi-family complexes
south of Hickory Street.
V. ARCHITECTURAL REGULATIONS
In accordance with the instructions set forth in Article
Z8A-14 (f) (5), the Historic Landmark Commission has adopted
"Architectural Standards for Existing and Proposed Historic
Districts. in preparing that document the Historic Landmark
Commission was guided by the U. S. Secretary of the Interior's
Standards for Rehabilitation.
VI. TRANSIT AND TRAFFIC OPERATIONS
• Both West Oak Street and West Hickory Street serve as major
east-west thoroughfares. In addition to monitoring traffic
intensity of those streets, it is recommended that the City
of Denton bear in mind the need to provide additional east-
west traffic carriers as it undertakes major capital improve-
ments to the City's traffic system.
VII. PUBLIC; IMPROVEMENTS
As the City of Denton continues its regular program of
maintenance, it is recommended that It try to bring public
elements of the streetscape into keeppingg with the nature of
the Historic District. One early prlority would be to replace
the fixtures for street lighting with elements more in keeping
with the nature of the Historic District.
VIII. LANDSCAPING
Much of the character of the Oak-Hickory Historic District
comes from its vegetation, especially its old trees. No tree
with a diameter greater than three inches measured one foot
above ground level shall be removed without the approval of
the Historic Landmark Commission. The Historic Landmark Com-
mission shall generally permit such removals only for purposes
of public safety or for specific purposes demonstrable to the
Historic Landmark Commission, and in return for allowing such
removal it will generally require the planting of a comparable
tree at some other appropriate place on the site.

ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS
FOR
EXISTING AND PRUPUSED STRUCTUMS
IN 'HISTORIC DISTRICTS
GENERAL PRINCIPLES
1. The existing original qualities or character of a building,
structure, or site and the environment of those buildings,
structures, and sitea shall not be destroyed. The removal
or alteration of any historic material or distinctive archi-
tectural features should be avoided,
Z. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as
products of their own times. Alterations that have no historic
basis, particularly those that seek to create an earlier
appearance, shall be discouraged,
3. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are
evidence of the history and development of a building, struc-
ture, site, or environment. These changes may have acquired
significance in their own right, and this significance, when
• it exists, shall be recognized and respected.
4. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled
craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure,
or site shall be treated with sensitivity.
5. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather
than replaced, whenever possi`lle. In the event that replace-
ment is necessary, the new material should match the material
being replaced in composition, design, color texture, and
other visual qualities, Replacement of missing architectural
features should be based on historic, physical, or pictorial
evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availabil-
ity of architectural elements taken from other buildings or
structures.
64 The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken only
with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other
cleaning methods that will damage the historic building
materials shall not be undertaken.
7. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing
properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and
additions do not destroy significant historic, architectural,
or cultural material, and such design is compatible with the
size, color, material, and character of the property, environ-
ment, and Historic District.
Architectural Standards

r
b. Whenever possible, new additions or alterations to strtiictures
shall be done in such a manner that if such additions or altera-
tions were to be removed in the future, the essential form and
integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.
9. Applicants should be advised that the decisions of the Historic
Landmark Commission on these matters are guided by the Secretary
of the Interior's Standards, as they may be amended from time
to time, and by the at onal Trust for Historic Preservation's
Design Review Standards forHi_sroric Districts, as they may be
revised` from time to rime.
1U. Whenever possible, the Historic Landmark Commission will
discourage alterations that affect existing landscaping,
especially any changes that might affect a tree with a diameter
greater than three inches, measured one foot above ground level.
11. Appeals from the decisions of the Historic Landmark Commission
concerning the granting, or the failure to grant, of s Certifi-
cate of Appropriateness, a permit for new consrruction, or a
demolition or removal permit within a Historic Distri,.t shall
be referred to the Planning and Zoning Commission. A peals
from the decisions of that b(dy shall be made to the pity
Council.
EXISTING STRUCTURES
In conjunction with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for
Rehabilitation, as they may be amended from time to t me the
MIMIC an mark Commission in reviewing applications for Certifi-
cates of Appropriateness within a Historic District will take into
account the following criteria to ensure that the application is
consistent with the character and historic aspect of the Historic
District:
1. The mass of the structure, The height of the building, its
bulk, and the nature of its roof line,
Z. The proportions between the height of the building, its bulk,
and the nature of its roof line (is its appearance
predominately horizontal or predominately vertical?).
3, The nature of they open spaces around the building, including
the extent of setbacks, the existence of any side yards and
their size, and the continuity of st;ch spaces along the street.

NEW STRUCTURES
In con unction with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards
for Rehabilitation, as they may be amended from time-T fps,

structures within a Historic District will take into account the
following criteria to ensure that the new structure is consistent
with the character and historic aspect of the Historic District:
1. The mass of the proposed structure, its height, its bulk, and
the nature of its roof line. Particularly important in this
judgment is the relationship of the proposed structure to the
average height of existing nearby and adjacent structures and
to the character of the Historic District,
2. Th
e proportions between the height of the proposed structure,
its
roof
structureseandowith
the character of the Historic District.

DISTRICT PRESERVATION PLAN
Presented Pursuant to
Article z8A-14 (f)
Appendix B, Zoning Ordinance
Code of Ordinances of the City of Denton
The City of Denton has de~.'sred it to be public policy to
protect, enhance, preserve, and use historic landmarks and
declared that such a policy leads to the culture, prosperity,
education, and general welfare of the people of the city
(Article 28A-1). Integral to the carrying our of those
purposes is the creation oC Historic Districts, and the
technical requirements for the creation and administration
of Historic Districts is stated in detail in the Code of
Ordinances of the City of Denton.
It should be noted that the Denton Ordinance has been
certified by the U. S. Department of the Interior.
't'he City of Denton Historic Preservation Plan, adopted by the
city Council in 1986, states that a major goal of the city is
tno creation of Historic Districts, and the plan singles out
Usk Str*er a~ one area in which it would be desirable to
create a Historic ulstrict.
HLL Minute*
July 14, 1966
Page to
West Oak Street from Williams to Welch is what was referred to
by citizens in earlier years as "Silk Stocking Row." Beginning
in the late nineteenth century, a number of substantial private
homes were built along that five-block stretch. The same sit-
uation, to a slightly less affluent degree, pertained on West
Hickory Street. As the evolution of the streetscape occurred,
some remodeling took place, and some new construction occurred.
As a consequence, that five block area of West Oak Street, the
north side of West Hickory Street, Williams Street, Denton
Street, and part of the south side of Pogarl Street, contains
representative architecture from the lace nineteenth and most
of the twentieth century,
thus, from the origins of West 04k Street and West Hickory
Street and because of their later evolution, the creation of
the Oak Street Historic District will substantially further
the goals of public policy set forth by the City of Denton,
i, zoning Classification of Uses
It must be remembered that inclusion within a Historic
District, like individual Historic Landmark designation,
is an overlay zoning, in which property retains its
basic zoning classification,
'rho majority of structures on West Oak Street were
In place before the City of Denton enacted its first
zoning code. As a consequence there are several non-
c
In a onforming uses of land within the district. In 1968,
multi-Family dI (lowndensityeaparea was artmentsdbeingathe pri-
unary land use under that classification). In 1976, at
the request of the West Oak Street Association, the
Lity of Denton began the policy of permitting voluntary
back-zoning on West Oak Street to the Single Family
classification without payment of the customary fees.
As a consequence, the Oak Street part of the area now
is about evenly divided between Multi-Family and Single
Family classification. The distribution of those two
classifications is uneven; however, several blocks are
now, in effect, spot-zoned Multi-Family.
It is recommended that thty. City Council continue to
encourage back-toning to ;tingle gamily to reduce as
much as possible the inequities of this situation. It
Is also recommended that the City Council allow the
owners of property within the Historic District on the
north side of Hickory Street and on Williams, Denton,
end Pearl Streets to petition for similar back-zoning
without payment of the customary fees,
It is also recommended that the staff of the Planning
and Development Office of the City of Denton strive to
reduce nonconforming uses within the Historic District
as they are able to review them.
In any application for construction or remodeling
petitioners are advised that the City of Denton will
be guided by "Architectural. Standards for Existing
and Propooed Structures in Historic Districts " passed
by the Historic Landmark Commission on March f0, 198o,
which is hereby attached by reforence to this Oak
Street Historic District Preservation Plan,
11, Building Code Requirements
No major revisions of the Building Codn are envisioned,
except as they may be indicated by "Architectural
Standards for Existing and Proposed Historic Districts."
HLC Minutes

rose 11
It is recommended that the Building Lode Inspector
undertake an examination of the building Code to
r recommend changes that would make it possible to move
historic structures into the Oak Street Historic
District, should such an action be found desirable
in the future.
111. Sign Regulations
The "Arcllltact uraI Standards for Existing and ?reposed
historic Uistriers" makes the following remarks on sign
regulation:
A. No permanent or temporaryy detached sign will be
allowed in the Historic District, except signs
announcin;i construction or the sale U the property
or political signs no larger than 18" x 14" at
times as allowed t.y the City of Denton,
8. Permanent attached signs shall meet the following
guidelines:
1, They must be architecturally integrated with
the structure;
1. Their placement must not obscure oignificant
architectural or ornamental elements of the
structure;
3. Che sign and the size of the lettering on the
sign must be proportional to the size of the
building;
4. The Color of the sign and its lettering must be
compatible with the structure;
C. Attachmonts which have the effect of serving as
advertising, including but not limited to banners,
flags, and balloons, must be approved by the His-
toric Landmark Commission, except for flags of the
United States and the State o=exas, which shall
be of a site and placement appropriate to the
structure.
1V, Parking Regulations
It is recommended that the City Cor,ncil examine
alternatives that would have the effect of limiting
parking, particularly on Hi:kory 5treer, to minimize
the negative effects of the overflow of vehicles from
the large aulti-family complexes Louth of Hickory
Street.
V. Architectural Kegulations
In accordance with the instru-lions set forth in
Article ZBA•14 (f) (S), the 'historic Landmark com-
mission has adopted "Architectural Standards for
Existing and Proposed Historic Districts." In pre-
paring that document the Historic Landmark Commission
WAS uided by the U. S. Secretary of the Interior's
Standards for Rehabilitation.
VI. Trtnsit and Traffic Operations
Both West Oak Street and West Hickory Street serve
as major east-west thorcughfares. In addition to
monitoring traffic intensity of those streets, it is
recommended that the City of Denton bear in mind the
need to provide additional east-west traffic carriers
as it undertakes major capital Improvements to the
City's traffic system.

O V11. Public improvements
r .
As the City of Denton continues its regular program
of maintenance, it is recommended that it try to bring
public elements of the streetscape into keeping with
,the nature of the Historic District. One early prior-
ity would be to replace the fixtures for street light-
ing with elements more in keeping with the nature of
the Historic District,
V111. Landscaping
Much of the character of the Usk Street Historic
District comes from its vegetation, especially its
old trees. No tree with a diameter greater than three
inches measured one foot above ground level shall be
removed without the approval of the Historic LP- nark
Commission. The Historic Landmark Commission s.+all
generally permit such removals only for purposes of
public safety or for specific purposes demonstrable to
the Historic Landmark Commission, and in return for
allowing such removal it will generally require the
planting of a comparable tree at some other appropriate

Chairman Cochran opened the public hearing and requested that
individual comments be limited to five minutes.
Penny Hdyvean, 1000 West Hickory Street, asked how the Historic
District would affect her.
Mr. Cochran stated that a historic district is an investment in the
homes and increased protection of the neighborhood.
Mr. Lowry stated that historic zoetin and historic disrricts overlay
the existing zoning. He said that tae historic designation would
not affect non-public or interior environments but only the exterior
facade.
L. S. Forester, 710 W. Hickory, asked what could be changed on the
exterior facade,
Mr. Lowry stated that regular maintenance and repairs could be
performed but that architectural changes would need the approval
of the Historic Landmark Commission.
Mr. Forester asked if he could demolish his structure.
Mr. Lowry stated that he would need the permission of the Historic
Landmark Commission.
Mr, Cochran stated that the Historic Landmark Commission took into
consideration the Aconomic ability of the property owners to
maintain the property.
Mr. Forester stated thrt he objected to the proposed historic
district, He said that he owns a delapidated old house and plans
only to keep it in a condition so that it can be occupied. He said
that he doesn't want to be handicapped where he would be unable to
sell or demolish it.
Mr. Lowry said that historic zoning didn't affect the owner's right
to sell the property.
,dr. Forester said that he was afraid that the historic zoning, might
decrease his property value. He said that the only use for his
structure is as rental property to college students because the

property values.

Robert Crouch, 801 North Locust, stated that he owned a four unit
r apartment at 812 west Hickory, a sin le family house at 814 West
Hickory and a arage apartment at $1 1112 West Hickory. He said
that he opposed the placing of his properties in a historic district
because he felt it was a violation of his ri hts as an owner and a
realtor to have someone else decide what coufd be done with his
property.
Mr. Lowry asked if he opposed zoning as a philisophicsl issue,
Mr. Crouch said he did not oppose zonin; for those who requested it,
but he did not feel it was right to be forced into a zoning
designation.
Mr. Lowry asked him if he Celt a11 toning shoi+ld be voluntary.
Mr. Crouch said that he objected to having his -ights removed.
He said that it was wrong for a commission or a person to zone his
property. He stated that property owners have the right to make
decisions about their property unless the property is condemned by
the government using due process.
Mr. Cochr++n asked Mr. Crouch if, as a realtor, he had seen any
indication that property values decrease as a result of a historic
district.
Mr. Crouch said no.
Mr. Marino asked if this is the first time Mr. Crouch had heard of
the proposed district,
Mr. Crouch said that this is the first time he has articulated his
objections because this is the first time the district included the
wnole block.
Mr, Boyd said that this was the third public hearing on the proposed
historic district. He said that Pearl Street was not included in
the first hearing but the boundaries had remained the same in the
second and third hearings.

incluOd d in the previous boundaries of the proposed historic dis-
trict. He said that he purchased his house 30 or 40 years ago and

the proposed district. He said that the district is fine for those
who wish to be included but that he should not be forced into a
historic district.

the beginning and had articulated this fact at previous meetings.

have the prerogative to do what is best for it, within reason. He
said that many of the property owners in the proposed district have
renovated and improved their homes using their own discretion. He
said that this is their right es property owners. He said he had
no objection to anyone who wants their home included in the historic
district but chat he didn't wish to be included.
Mr, Cochran inquired as tt, the color of his house.

painting and that he intended to improve it when financially
possible. He said that he intended to rely on his own taste and

value if his neighbors painted their house purple.

Nr. Lowry said that the ordinance is intended to prevent inappro-
priate painting or renovation, not to restrict the property owners,
kr. Dog att said that he had faith in his neighbor's taste, ind that
r in the V'rure he would fix his house as he saw fit,
Mr. Cochran stated that Mr. Doygett's house was noted as excluded
but is eligible for inclusion In the historic district if at some
time in the future Mr. Doggett or a new owner wished to have the
property included,
Leighton Le Claire, 924 West Osk, stated that painting is maintenance
and includes the right of color choice. He said that the painting
issue was the most ridiculous point in the ordinance. He said that
he opposes any ordinance that restricts his right to choose paint
color, roof material or add siding to hts home.
Mr. Miller asked if he would object*;, the neighbors painting an
obscene picture on the house.
Mr. Le Claire said that he would defend anyone's ri ht to do so and
would strive to maintain a relationship with his no ghbors that
would not drive them to such extremity, He also stated that unlike
some of his neighbors, he was not opposed to the idea of a historic
district. He said that the ordinance should be written to preserve
the cultural value, but not restrict the ri hts of property owners
in the district. He said that a historic district Night increase
property values but that he did not wish his property to be included.
Mr. Lowry stated that an ordinance allowing the historical zoning of
individual properties and regulating the establishment of historic
districts was passed in 1980. He said the ordinance has boon filed
with the United Stated Department of Interior so that the people who
have historical zoning would be able to obtain tax advantages. He
said that a certificate of appropriateness is a blank form that can
be filled out and is to be used as an Internal document. He reite-
rated that the purpose of the public hearing is to decide which
properties would apply to the City of Denton Ordinance 40.30,
Ms. Bdyvean asked if her property is Included in the proposed
historic district.
Mr. Boyd said yrs.
Ms. Edyvean said that it had been mentioned that there is a
possibility that property values would 'increase because of the
historic district. She said that she could foresee that possi-
bility on Oak Street but not on Hickory Street because there are
so many appartments and homes that are not well maintained, She said
that she is afraid that a historic district might cause her property
to be valued at more than anyone would want to pay to live next to
run-down houses or apartments.
Mr. Cochran said that it is the hope of the Historic Landmark
Commission that the historic district would hn an attractive fer,+eure
of the neighborhood and would encourage land owners in and around
the district to maintain their properties,
Ms. Edyvean asked if future owners would be prohibited from putting
in apartment complexes.
Mr. Boyd stated that the ordinance does prohibit chap ing the
historical nstura of the property. He said that the istoric Land-
mark Commission and City Council would have to approve a demolition
of a house and its replacement with apartments. He said that cur-
rent uses are not in any way affected by the historic district and
the purpose of the district is to maintain the character of the
neighborhood. He also rsid that the property is currently toned
for residential type user and any other usage would rqulre a zoning

the vbry nature of zoning is to place certain restrictions on prop-
f. arty owners so that the surrounding property can be protected.
Ms. Bdyvean asked if she could remove a porch that had been added
after the house was built,
Mr. Boyd said that if the exterior facade was affected, a short
appearance before the Historic Landmark Commission would be neces-
sary to explain the reason for the action and a certificate of
appropriateness could be issued. He stated that this is only a

mark Commission had never denied anyone with a reasonable request,

a month.

Richard Bdyvean, 1000 West Hickory, asked if the proposed historic
district would affect the single family and multi-family relation-
ships or if it just affected the exterior maintenance of the
buildings.
Mr. Boyd stated that the basic zoning that is already in place would
be unaffected because the historic zonin is an overlay type of zon-
ing. He said that it would be possible her back-zoning to occur if
anyone wanted to change their zoning back to single family,
Mr. Lowry stated that Ordinance 80-30 dealing with the establishment
of a historic district is an amendment to the City of Denton Code of
Urdinances. He said that a set of standards have been required and

sistency and orderly development of a significant historical area,
Murray Ricks, 70S West Oak, sand that his family had lived In Denton
for four enerations and that he had always been proud of Oak Street

for the creation of a historic district appeared overnight. He said
that the notion is incorrect. He said that a number of residents on

mission asked the Texas Historical Commisslon which sent a City

Mr. Lowry asked about the possibility of changing the name of the

Mr. Morris said that a name change would be all right, but no
substantial changes could be made at this stage in the process

A member of the audience asked if 903 and 918 West Oak were
still proposed excluded from the district. Mr. Claiborne
stated that this Item could be addressed later In the staff
report.
PETITIONER: Mike Cochran, Chairman of the Historic Land-
iar`k C U-Usslon, stated that the Commission unanimously re-
commended approval of the Historic District. He said that
the Commission felt an obligation to protect the invest-
ments, homes and residents of this proposed district and
to preserve one of the last remaining Intact older neigh-
borhoods. He said that this area has been In transition
for a number of years and It Is not the Commission's Intent
to stop development but to insure the transition would pro-
ceed in moderation. He said that the city-wide zoning that
was done in 1969 zoned this area multi-family. He said the
people in this area realized that a rapid deterioration of
the area was occurrJngg and a number of citizens formed an
organization and sought to stem encroachment and provide
protection of the neighborhood. He said that the culmina-
tion of the efforts of this committee was Ordinance 80.30,
He said that the ordinance provided a system for preserva-
tion, designation of historic structures and creation of
historic districts. He added that he lives In the city and
in this proposed district. He said tnar the Historic Land-
mark Commission feels that a historic district Is a good
thing for the city and they urge support,
Mr, Claiborne asked why 903 and 918 West Oak were excluded
from the district. Mr. Cochran stated that the owners,
Mr, Pearce and Mr. Doggett, opposed the district over the
toafightdwith them. Hensaidtthat was felt wsubsequentaowners
of the property would want to be included In the district.
He said that it is not the Commission's deslro to force
anyone and that in his opinion the ordinance was not strong
enough,
Ms. Brock stated that she recelved five letters In opposi-
tion requesting properties be excluded. Mr. Cochran stated
that if the creation of the district Is In jeopardy rho
Commission would be willing to exclude the properties, He
said that the district Is weakened by exclusions. He said
that the district Is being set up for protection and the
residents have a right to live In a residential neighbor-
hood,
Mr, Holt asked if in the 1920s were the houses on Oak
Street all painted white. Mr. Cochran stated that he was
not sure bit that from the research that he has done most
of the houses were white,
Mr. Holt asked If the house Is not painted a period color
will the owner be reevented from painting a particular
color that he has chosen. Mr, Cochran rated that most of
the houses in the district are colored. He stated that
the Commission Is not trying to turn back the clock with
the district but rryin to provide some protection for
this older Intact neighborhood, He said that paint color
is a minor part of the proposal and a broad spectrum of
colors are acceptable. He said that some houses with a
historic designation have been painted without permission.
Mr. Holt soked about if the owner decided to Install Alumi-
num siding. Fr. Cochran stated that there are a variety
of sidings. He said that the owner is required to appear

of texas have historic districts, Ms, Spivey stated that
Gainesville and Mcdinney have historic districts,
Mr, Holt asked If all of Oak Street was zoned multi-family
in 19o9, Mr, Cochran said that It was all multi-family
and some of the property owners have rezoned or backzoned
their property to single family,
Mr. Holt asked how many of the property owners could build
apartments, Mr. Cochran said all property zoned multi-
family except the property with historic designation and
619 West Usk.
Ms. Brock asked about the tax advantages to historic zon-
ing, Mr. Cochran stated that the Commission has proposed
and passed a tax abatement for houses with historic
desig- nation. He said that It amounts to a freeze on appraisals
for ten years and a fifty percent abatement including
multi-family and non-owner occupied structures. He said
that the dollar amount is s mbolic but that the taxes would
be reduced, lie said that there has been some unfairness
to property owners with renovations and this document rec-
ogn3zes the unfairness and underscores services that his-
toric houses provide to the city a4 a whole,
IM FAVOR; Richard Edyvean, 1000 West Hickory, stated that

a strong atirement in favor of preserving Denton's archi-
ownerrin theiproposededisold strictl, He said resident
their house and have been for two years. He said
that the north side of Hickory Street has a wealth of small
and large properties and needs the protection of historic
designation. He said that two homes have been bulldozed
and apartments have replaced them. He said that if the
district is not approved Hickory Street will lose most of
the homes due to pressure by developers. He said that the
district will provide character and ambiance and that he
feats this Is the last chance for preservation.
Paula Carpenter, 723 V, -r stated that she and her
husband own the Lomax hol-,~ She !ald that they have been
very much in favor of the u:strict for six years, She
said that she has admired Oak and Hickory streets for
years and was surprised that they were not protected by a
district. She said that she felt the residents have more
at stake than a rental property owner or person that owns
property that lives out of town, She said that her house
. has a historic designation and they had no problem in
painting their house, She said that she felt that they

time with his property at 714 West Hickory in regards to
the Historic Landmark Commission, He stated that this

Mr. Kamman asked Mr Lantrip about the zoning of his
property. Mr, Lantrip said he thought multi-family.
Bob Pearce, 9U3 West Oak, stayed that the other side does
not have a monopoly on wanting to preserve the old homes
and that he has been practicing historic preservation for
the past 20 years. He said that the point is that there
are two groups and one group is trying to make it look
' like the opposition to the district is against preserving
old homes. He said that he sent letters to everyone that
didn't have historic designation and he received 24 let-
ters from these tracts that agreed with him, He said that
those in favor were trying to gain control of those who
did not want to be included. He sold that the Denton
Board of Realtors passed a resolution in opposition to
formation of this district two yyears ago and believes it
still stands. He said that he believes that the argument
about apartments has nothing t7 do with this historic
district.
Ms, Brock asked how many that agreed with his letter ac-
tually live In the district. Mr, Pearce stated that ten
live in the district. He said he believed that all had
the same right to oppose, Ms. Brock stated that their
interest was a little different.
Ms, Brock asked if his plan for preservation of the histor-
ic nature of Oak Street is by voluntary action. $lie asked
if he would like his house to sit In isolat on and wouldn't
he prefer to preserve the context in which his house sits.
Mr, Pearce stated that the market place has taken care of
this problem because the houses are too valuable to tear
down, Ms, Brock asked about a reversible market condition.
Mr, Pearce stated that these properties are too much In
demand,
Mr. Claiborne asked what if apartments were built on both
sides of his property, Mr. Pearce stated that a historic
designation would not prevent this from happening. He
said that if the property is zoned multi-family that no
one can stop the property owner from building apartments.
He said that the property owner could tear down an exist-
ing structure and could get approval from the Historic
Landmark Commission, Hs said that If the property is
zoned single family on both sides of his property then he
would be protected,
Mr, Claiborne stated that the property owner would have to
a pear before the Historic Landmark Commission the Plan-
ning and Zoning Commission and the City Council before de-
molishinQ to build apartments, Mr. Pearce sald that the
inevitable could only be postponed for three months. He
said that if a person has to go before a board for permis-
sion to do lmprovements*then rights are being taken away,
Don Davis, co-owner of 700 West Hickory, stated that this
pro arty is part of his income to make mortgage payments
on iris new property. He said that he Is In opposition
because the proposed district is not In his best Interest.
He said that tax dollars can be better spent In lieu of
budget cuts and hard times,
Lee Le Clair, 924 West Oak, stated that he was in favor of
Dreserving the architectural significance In the truly
historic buildings throughout the city but cannot support
this historic district because of the way the ordinance is
written. He said the ordinance establishing historic zon-
ing is a great usurption of the rights of a property owner.
He said that the ordinance says 60 days before a property
owner can do what he wants with his property if no decision

tions, He said if one doesn't agree with the Historic

could be restricted; 2) Currant set of pictures of street
facades be taken after City Council onproval within 10
days; and 3) Grandfather oxisting residences and add a
clause tnat states as the boundaries noted now that it ap-
plies only to those residents voluntarily enrolled by pre-
sent owner and such enrollment to be Irrevocable and all
residents not voluntarily enrolled shall be automatically
enrolled at change of ownership,
Mr. Claiborne stated that the third condition is not pos-
sJble because of ownership versus land use issue. He said
that this Is not in the realm of the Commission,
Ms, Brock asked how long had he lived In the area,
Mr. Le Clair said two years and prior to that he lived In
a tract home In Lewisville and hated it, He said that he
could not accept a government agency coming In and
saying
what Is best for him, He stated that he has an apartment
building next to him new that Is much older but he would
respect the right of the owner If he tore the structure
down and built new apartments rather than lot the existing
structure deteriorate.
Mr. Claiborne stated that the ordinance and proposed
district is a mechanism to challenr,e demolitions,
Mr. Le Clair 4tated that he would like to have that kind
of mechanism without having the other requirements.
STAFF RBPORT: Ms. Spivey stated that there is strong
fie e1 - nfgs'an7 opinions on both sides. She said that the
Zoning ordinance defines a hlstorlc zoning district as a
geofraphical area possessing a significant concentration,
linkage or continuity of buildings, structures, sites,
areas or land which are united by architectural, historl-
cal, archeological or cultural importance or significance.
She said that the Historic Landmark Commission has voted
specifically on each property to be Included and criteria
sheets are available in the filA and the minutes, She ad-

involved, Ms. Spivey stated that those property owners
have applied to the Historic Landmark Commisslon for in-
dividual designation as a historic landmark. She added
that they have provided Information to justify their
clatms tnat the structure Is historic, She said the case

i Ms. Hrock asked If this amounted to spot historic zoning.
! She asked if they had to have permission to do remodeling,
ms. Spivey said yes, She said that the property owners
with a historic designation have to get permission to re-
model exterior and request a certificate of appropriate-
ness by submitting plans and n.ture of remodeling, She
said that several had been through this process.
Mr. Claiborne asked how Gainesville and McKJnney handled
changes In their districts, Ms. Spivey stated that with-
out the ordinance she could not tell between the differ-
ences or similarities.
Nit. Claiborne asked if the basis criteria is by the U.S.
Department of the Interior. Ms, Spivey stated that the
standards that the Historic Landmark CommissJon has pro-
posed to be adopted as part of district if approved are

wTio- spoke In favor or in opposition. He said that Mr. Le
Clair's statement about appearin beforo the Cltyy Council
in i,q days is incorrect, He sale according to ►he ordi-
nance a petitioner may appeal within 30 days to the City
Council after a Historic Landmark Commission decision, He
said that It has been suggested that the criteria sheets
for each property have been poorly done and that Is Incor-
rect. He stated that .ie believed that there are more than
34 structures in this district that have historic signifl-
eance. He said that the pictures are not out-of-date as
suggested and were taken after the demolition of 714 West
Hirkory. He Stated C'jai his seat on the Commission Is not
a conflict of interest but an example of rnelghborhood In-
put. Ha sold that he rec6tvnd Mr. Pearce's letter and sent

r It was his stewardship as a citizen to maintain the propor-
ty until the next property owner came atong. He said that
this ordinance provides a mechanism to slow down the pro-
cess of decline.
Chair declared public hearing closed.
DECISION: Mr. Claiborne stated that there are valid points
on o sides. He said a valid argument on one in favor is
to stop erosion of a historic area. He said that it is
their goal as a Commission to preserve Denton. He said
that he wished a historic district existed eighteen years
ago before a lot of the erosion occurred between Carroll
Boulevard and Bonnie Brae. He said that the opposition had
a legitlmate complaint in that they would have to appear
before the Historic Landmark Commission before changing, the
exterior of their house. He said that a historic district
would help preserve the facades and properties with histor-
ic designations because there is a lot of multi-family
zoning in this area. He said that there is sufficient
architectural styles on Hickory Street to Include as well,
He said that he would favor district as proposed.
Ms. Brock stated that several of the Commissioners have
been on the Land Use Planning Committee which has expressed
a strong concern for maintaining, preserving and developing

. the support and protection from the community, She said
that she is proud to show newcomers and visitors Oak and
Hickory Streets. She said that thl3 proposed district Is
a step in the right direction.
Mr. Holt stated that the argument of taking away property
rights is a philosophical argument. He said that he didn't
realize how important material things meant to him until
he came back to Denton after twenty years and was sur-
prised at how much was gone, He said that sometimes one
has to waive private rights for the public good. He said
that he was fortunate enough.to see the historic district
form In San Antonio. Hs said that Gainesville attributes
its success of the historic district to its ordinance. He
said that if they can do anything to preserve some of the
past, he is in favor.
Ms. Brock moved to recommend approval of the Oak-Hickory
Historic District. Seconded by Mr. Bscue.
Mr. Bscue stated that everyone has to abide by rules they
don't like but that the underlying philosophy is that the
district would be better for the city.

velop unless they have access to Teasley Lane,

October 29, 1986
Members Present: Jim Kuykendall
Dale Maddry
Ronald McDade
Members Absent: Charles Ridens
Others P;osent: Gary Collins of the City staff
Dale Maddry made a motion that the minutes of the meetings of December 9,' 1985, and
September 5, 1986, be approved as written. Jim Kuykendall seconded the motion and
it passed unanimously.
In reviewing the policies regarding microcomputers there was a consensus that the
current policies provide for a central review of the acquisition and are flexible
enough regarding those microcomputers that perform information processing functions
versus stand-alone functions. Dale Maddry indicated he felt a centralized review
was necessary to avoid expending tremendous amounts of money with little payback,
but the Data Processing Steering Committee should be the group that gives approval
or disapproval. Dale Maddry also indicated that the payback should be in "herd"
dollars versus "soft" dollars. Ron McDade indicated that if the microcomputers
were to be used in a stand-alone process with no connection to tho mainframe, no
file transfer, and no networking needs, the acquisition process should be a budget-
ing and justification decision of the requesting department head/division manager.
Jim Kuykendall pointed out that once a personal computer was installed, it is easy
and inexpensive to modify the equipment to connect to the mainframe, have network
capability, and have the need for mainframe data. Dale Maddry and Gary Collins
concurred with Jim Kuykendall's observation. Ron McDade suggested that once this
additional equipment or capabilities were acquired then the centralized review and
justification would be required. Ron McDade stated that he felt these policies
were adequate for that equipment involved in information processing, but a separate
policy could be used for the acquisition of stand-alone personal computers. Jim
Kuykendall suggested that a statement be added to the current policies "that if any
discre}ancies existed between mainframe data bases and personal computer data bases,
the mainframe date bases would be assumed correct until the user department /division
proved the personal computer data base was correct. There being no action necessary
on this issue, no vote was taken.
Dale Maddry made a motion that the Advisory Board recommend that the Council approve
the maintenance agreement with TRES Corporation on the utility billing system known
as "CIS" and that the Advisory Board be involved in the budgeting process when funds
are committed for these types of maintenance agreements. Jim Kuykendall seconded
the motion and it passed unanimously.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

FROM: Roger McDaniel, Engineering Tech Supervisor
SUBJEC'T': Overlay Project 85-2, followup overview
The following details explain the changes that were necessary
on two projects to insure proper quality control. Our on anal
engineering design used asphalt emulsion (MS-Z) to stabilize
the subgrade. The very hign plasticity of the soil would not
break down with the emulsion to a con4tant gradation/non
plastic -subgi?de. We decided to add lime sl:,rry to the problem
areas since lio,e is much more effective In breaking down clay
particles to a non plastic material. Our BOMAG was equiped
with an asphalt emulsion pump and the cost seemed better per
square yard until we ran into the problem areas.
To offset part of the cost of the additional lime treatment, a
pavement thickness modification was necessary. The 4ubgrade
stabilized very well with both the asphalt emulsion and lime
slurry reacting with the soil. The final compacted subgrade
seemed even more stable than our specified design so the small
(one half inch) reduction was judged not to be a problem.
Savings from the thickness reduction offset all but $2,152.37
of the additional $11,510.68 cost for the lime and freight. We
feel the additional costs were necessary to insure the project
was not reconstructed into more of a problem than before the
bond issue. This problem occurred on a very small portion of
the total overlay and repaving project. We figure the 0.371
overrun reflects that the problex was minor.

The Mayor opened the public hearing.
Mc. Lew Andecton, representing Miller of Texas, spoke to favor and
presented conceptual plate of the proposed development, with one of
the plate being for the 703 acres involved to this petition. Miller
had begun buying the property two years ago and working with the
city approximately one year ago to determine the highest and best
use which would be mutually beneficial. As the project was being
assembled, several things were kept in mind. The main objective was
to have the highest quality subdivision which could be developed on
the property, The Lake Lewisville change in elevation, based upon
the completion of Lake Ray Roberts, was the primary initial study.
The antics lake bed had been topographically charted and determined
where raised level of Lake Lewisville would be and its impact on
their property, Areas of unused Corps of Engineers' property which
adjoined the proposed development was shown on the plat. As of this
date, this 350 plus acres of Corps property was accessible only by
water. After the City of Denton Packs Department had seen the land,
Miller of Texas had begun working together with the Corps of
Engineers in developing a plan for recreational stead. At that
time, working with staff, it was also discovered what Denton felt to
be A primary need which was to relieve the congestion on Loop 288
and build a primary, major artery that would connect University down
to interstate 35. They were advised by the City staff that the
first preference was to go to the ■outhecn-sort existing overpass,
which was in Corinth's jurisdiction, The second choice was to go to
the Shady Shores exit. When this was betoce the Planning and Zoning
commission in December, Miller had not given a firm commitment on
414
City of Denton city council minutes
Meeting of January 7, 1986
Page Seven
buying the additional properties. After P&Z approval, an additional
460 acres to the south had been purchased as well as 60 acres to the
north by University Eoulsvard. The City and Miller of Texas agreed
that the most important thing which could occur would be the
construction of this major highway. To do this, the tight-of-way
which Miller cont.colled totalled 33,000 linear square feet of road.
Including the major bridges which would have to be built, the cost
would be extraordinarily high. Several areas would require a bridge
to be built for this six-lane thocoughtace that would cross the lake
(when the level was raised). To do this would take units in order
to justify the project economically. In working with the staff,
Miller also wanted to identify all of the needs of the City that
they could. They had tried to accomplish this and, in addition to
an agreement which they would make at this meeting to build the road
and the phasing of the road, they would agree to give two school
sites toe the Denton Independent School District which would be
worth approximately $645,000, The Corps of Engineers was plain in
stating that they wanted to $ae the Corps atea remain as natural as
possible. In ceder to accomplish this, Miller had also given an
additional packing space to park cars in the northern section which
would give immediate access to the Corps property and agreed to set
up a $250,000 grant. This would be used as seed money to get
matching funds from the Parke and Wildlife Department. The problems
which were faced in making this firm commitment mainly centered on
the tact that Millet did not own all of the right-of-way between
Interstate 35 and University. The developers had agreed to work
with Miller in securing this right-of-way. Killer was prepared to
make the commitment. An assessment would need to be made it the
agreements would not be worked out voluntarily. There was
approximately 2,900 feet which would have to be assessed and built
to go along with Millers 33,000 feet to ensure that the project
would be completed. The other conditions, as snt forth in the
revised list which he had been given, were all agreeable to Miller
in principle. He also wanted to address the bottom line of this
project to the City of Denton. To do this, they had asked the staff
to recommend consultants to be sure that there was no strain put on
the transportation on existing roads and that there would be
adequate roads to ensure the highest quality development possible.
Mack Goods was retained, and Millet had agreed to pay his tee, along
with Dr. McKee. They would address the roads and economic impact to
the City. Me. Andecton stated that he really felt that they had
solved a lot of Denton's problems from an economic standpoint. The
large majority of property and buildings within the City was tax
exempt because of the state status of Texas Woman's University and
North Texas State University and the Denton State School. Millet
felt that their Initial, first phase project of 700 acres, would
double the budget and revenue to the City. They also felt that, at
the ease time, they would calleve density r:,quirements that would be
faced in the future, because the City would be more in balance. The
balance would be done with units which they simply had to have to
construct a road of this magnitude.
Mr. Mark Goods, 330 Union Station, Dallas, spoke in favor stated
that he was a Vice-President and principle in the firm of Desha2t,
Stacret and Cohn. They were traffic consultant engineers and in the
last tour or five years, Mr. Goode has boon before the City Council
and the Planning and Zoning Commission approximately twelve times on
a number of different cases. He believed that his firm understood
the traffic situation in Denton, and they had developed what he
believed to be a good working relationship with the City staff. His
tics had been working on this particular study for approximately
four months. They were brought in to work with the City staff, to
answer their questions, and to do the analysis tcom the City's point
of view at the expense of Miller of Texas. Hocking with hie was
Mack Thompson, the project manager. The staff recommendation was
fairly remarkable in that it followed almost verbatim what his fire
recommended in their report. His firm had taken the proposed 700
acts development, the multi-tasily, the vast acreage of single
family, the retail and office portions at the intersections of the
City of Denton city council Minutes 4
Meeting of January 7, 198f,
Page Eight
major roadways of McKinney and the new arterial and University and
the new actecial and distributed that traffic throughout the site
and back along University and McKinney. At the time that they were
conducting the study, they could no commit or guarantee to the City,
as they could at this meeting, that the connection to Interstate 35
would be built at the beginning of the project as opposed to the
and, Their task was to study how such of this proposed zoning could
be built and what improvements could be made both on- and off-site
to accommodat" the traffic until a connection with Interstate 35 was
needed. New, knowing that the connection would be sooner rather
than later, many of the improvements which were recommended, and
were triggered by a certain amount of development, may already be in
place way in advance of the actual platting and development of this
phase of the project. His firm had suggested that improvements
needed to be made at Loop 288 and University, and Loop 288 and
McKinney In order for only about 0 1/2k of the development to be
developed. Tied in the staff recommendation and the report was a
formula, not based on specific tract development, but on the total
number of peak-hour trips generated. An equation was included which
alloy for the conversion of development to peak-hour trips. Eight
and one-half percent could be developed with improvements which his
firm had identified. These Included turning lanes - additional turn
lanes at McKinney, University, and University along Loop 288. The
construction of a two-lane roadway from University to McKinney would
be required early in the program. This roadway would need to be
improved to a four-lane divided street in order to build approxi-
mately 50% of the proposed development, When approximately 751 of
the development was built, the Interstate 35 connection would need
to be in place to accommodate the traffic. At this point, much of
the pressure that would otherwise have been felt along Mayhill and
Loop 288 would be relieved by the routes (whichever one - the north
or south route which was to be constructed, possibly both,) The
regional map showed that this area would not only drain or access
just this development, but would also relieve pressure which was
being brought to beat by development from Loop 280 all the way to
the lake. The capacity analysis for the various intersections was
based on the additional development, not just their project. He
summarized by stating that his firm had provided in their report,
and this was included in the staff recommendation, a list of
improvements and the phases in the development which would trigger
those improvements in the development as it was proposed to the
Council at this time. Theta was the advantage now that Miller of
Texas was indicating that the Interstate 35 connection was possible
initially rather than later. The planned aevelopmenc as proposed by
staff showed improvements which would protect the city from the
traffic generated both on-site and off-site.
Dr. Bill McKee, economist, spoke in favor stating that he had been
a?ked to study the economic Impacts of the development to the City,
the County and the School District. He wanted to address several
issues which had come up subsequent to his written report which had
been presented to the Planniag and Zoning Commission. A question
had been raised by a council Member regarding property tax revenues
which would be flowing into the City prior to the completion of any
construction. It* had gone through the exercise of trying to place a
dollar value on that flow of income to the Central Funds of the
City. This calculation was done assuming no completed construction
as, obviously, completed construction would drive up t'A property
values. In doing this, he had worked very closely with the Denton
County Tax Appraisal District and had used procedures as outlined by
Mc, Joe Rogers and his staff, had evaluated the property and gone
through the exetoise of identifying tax rates and even colt-beck
provisions for land which had agricultural exemption prior to what
would be a conversion to a new property use. The figures presented
reflected annual and cumulative effects over the years, The 1986
figures did not reflect any zoning changes which would affect the
property value. The big revenue impact on the vacant property would
begin in 1987 after the zoning change. The oll-bank provision
could also come through in 1907 on the previously exempted property
416
City of Denton City Council Minutes
Meeting nt January 7, 1966

under agricultural use. The figures had been spread out to 1992.
In his earlier analysis, he had used 1969 as an initial completion
data for some of the properties. This analysis had been extended to
1992 on 1e proviso that some of the properties would not be
completed until then. Ae an economist and a resident of the area,
he wanted to emphasize not-, only the revenue impacts that would be
steaming from this type oL development, but also the jcb creation.
Most of his career had been devoted to analyzing jobs and
identifying job creation opportuni4iss. There were not many
oppoctunities which Denton would have to see this type of job
oceation come into the City, and have one decision to make on it.
The basis of his calculations of the jobs and many of the other
revenue impacts, came from the State of Te-us input/output model
which was developed by the Texas Ngter Resources Hoard. This showed
the impact of an expenditure of money into the spending etceas or
cycle of the community and, as that rippled through, beeaae money in
ot,4er people's pockets through consumer expenditure patterns. This
then had an impact across the community. This pattern was very
wide- spread in this particular instance. A 11,000,000,000 increase
in aonstruct.ion around Denton would generate throughout the City and
the northern metropolitan area approximately 15,000 Sobs. It would
also increase personal income across this area by several hundred
million dcllars and increase tax revenues across the board by a
substantial magnitude, not only to the city and the County, but also
to other areas in the surrounding communities. The State of Texas
would also receive some substantial jobs, because other state
suppliers would be involved in supplying materials, etc. into a
project of this magnitude. The federal government would also
benefit by increased revenues of 1143,000,000 to its tax system.
This is an important part and one which he wished to stress as a
major economic impact of this project into the City of Denton. He
did not want to overlook the population change. The projected
population increase which was pcesonted was based on an estimate of
full capacity. He felt this was the upper bound and might be
sosewhat too high. This was also true for the estimate for the
Denton Independent School District. He felt that he had used
conservatively high figures oa estimating the school enrollments
which would be stemming from the completed project. An additional
point on the school enrollment was that most of the students would
be coming in during the final years of the projeo+c's development.
The big multi-family units would not be completed until the late
199014. This would have the substantial impact on generating the
school growth. This assumed a number of things: one of the major
assumptions was that :esidential patterns and family structures
would remain the same :n tho, future as they were now. He was not
too sure that 'his was tt,e cane. There were reasons to believe that
the projected school enro!,lment figure was high. A recent article
in the Nall stcett Journak had talked about the major impact that
was sweeping across the country in terms of land use in residential
structutes, which was facilities for the aged. It this should have
an impact on school children and types of facilities, that would
lower the projection on school enrollment perhaps substantially, He
had also assumed in hit calculations that these facilities were not
held aside for adults only; in other words, children would be living
throughout the complex.
Council Membet Makdams stated that she was interested in the tact
that Dr. McKee felt the school population would cost later when the
multi-family portion was being developed.
Dc. McKee responded, yes; the high-ties, sulti-family.
Council Member McAd4ms asked it he anticipated that this would Masan
houO ng lots of large families with school age children.
Dr. McKee responded that this was also a question which he had. Hh
had used those dwelling units to drive his figures up juut as a
single-family home would. He had some doubt in Lite mind that the
large autti-family structure or structures would cocttribute as many

students as single-family residential housing[ would. But he did not
adj,lst for this,
Council Member McAdams Asked it Dc. McKee was aware that the school
system thought that morn school itea was needed, and she did not
think that they had it tied to the multi-story, multi-tamily units,
They were looking at the cluster housing and single-family units and
thoyLwore saying that more school space was needed.
Dc. Notes asked, more space than what?
council Member McAdams responded, note than was donated.
De. McKee responded that he was aware that there was a letter
regarding this issue trom Mr. Bernstein of the Denton Independent
School District, He had participated in a meeting with Mr. ailbecc
Bernstein, De. McGee and other planning *sabots of the DIED, and he
had heard Mr. Bornstein's comments. However, he did not hear this
echoed by the other member of that comaittsei He had only recently
hosed that there was a letter out on this issue.
Council Member McAdams asked it De. McKee was disagreeing with the
DtBD assessment.
De. McKee responded, not, he understood Me. Bernstein had requested
additional school sites. He had not hosed that the Superintendent
of Schools had requested the additional sites.
Council Member Makdasc stated that she did not feel Mr. Bernstein
would have written an official letter without the approval of the
School Superintendent,
Dr. McKee stated that alt he could say was that, at the meeting,
Dr. McGee did not request the additional sites.
Council Member McAdams stated that she was interested in the overall
reports because it spoke of tho pluses. She normally put the pluses
one side the the minuses on another, balanced them off and came up
wLth a net, It seemed that, here, the Council was looking at the
gross and there was nothing to allow her to determine the net
imptovement. Coe instances, there was a significantly large figure
as potential income tar the elect rto/water/sewer systems. This area
was a dual-seevieed area. Was De. McKee basing his figures on the
entire development going with Denton utilities rather than Tares
Power and Light. It to, what was the rationale?
Dr. McKee replied that he had worked with Mt. Bob Nelson, Director
of Utilities, and his stet: to obtain these figures,
council Mesbec McAdams asked it this assumed that the City would be
serving all of the people in the atom rather than TPAL?
Dr, McKee responded, yes.
Council Member McAdams stated that this was absolute conjecture as
TP&L also had a franchise to serve this area.
Dr. McKee replied that he, did not get into all of these details with
Mr. Nelson, He laid out the number of dwelling units, the ptojectod
population growth, etc. toe Mr. Nelson. Nelson had than calculated
ghat he viewed would be the rise in revenues to the City's General
Cund,tesulting ttom this project.
Council Member McAdams stated that there was also a cost associated
with this. She felt the figure on the electricity was highly
suspect due to the dual-seevics question. There were no guarantees
whatsoever that the City would serve these people. The revenues to
the City were not net results as the costs associated to the City
was not provided. She would like to have all of the information,
418

because it was entirety possible that in lose of the areav, the cost
would outweigh the gain altogether, and when the not result was
detetmined, the City would have a net cost. Somebody, likely the
citizens of Denton, would have to pay this cost,
Dr. McKee responded that Mr. Law Andecton and Roger Barrett had
specifically requested his to spend his time working with the City
planning staff in attempting to provide answers to the questions
staff had prior to submittal to the Planning and Zoning Commission,
He began working around the first or second week of November, and
P&Z hearing was on December 7. He had spent his time working with
the planning staff, the planning committee, the Anting City
Manager's office, the finance officer, Fire Department, Personnel,
etc. including Mr. Nelson's utility depactment, attempting to
provide the answers that he could in the given tisefraae. To his
knowledge, he answered all the questions which were presented to him
through the mechanism of working through the planning staff,
Certainly, this was not a true cost benefit study; he was the first
to state that. There was not time nor was theca information which
he requested presented through the City, to generate all the data
which was necassacy to generate a true cost benefit study,
Council Member McAdams stated that she felt this iatoruation was
pact of what the Council would need. It they were going to have the
figures at all, they would need the other halt. She also looked at
the numbers regarding jobs. She would concede that this type of
massive construction would certainly provide a number of jobs.
However, this was short-term and it you looked at what was going to
sustain this over the next fifty years, then she would question
whether the number of jots provided would take cats of even the
population generated. Another scenario would be that the people who
moved into the development would be competing for existing jobs in
Denton. It seemed that this was not necessarily a net figure
either. This could oonceivably cause higher unemployment rather
than excess jobs.
Dc. McKee responded that the job figures, in part, ware generated
through the construction activity. A newspaper had quoted that, as
the construction industry goes, so Iola the national economy. He
felt this was true not only for the national level, but also the
local level. When there was a high level of construction activity
in an area, even over a substantial number of years, theta certainly
was a positive impact on the local economy. Construction would
sometimes go away from the area. What would be left behind in this
development would be 2,434 jobs within the facility itself (office
buildings, general retail and other commercial ventures.) It that
entity was the single employee, which it would not be, it would
become the second largest employer in the city of Denton. It would
be the only private sector employer of the top tour or five
employers in Denton. He felt another economic aspect which should
not be overlooked was the over-celianoe at the present time on the
public sector employer. In his mind, this economic could benefit
from more private sector jobs.
Council Member McAdams stated that it the Council looked at the foot
that these wets the jobs which wets being generated, once the
development process itself was completed, they wets then looking at
what she felt might be a negative, and the Council should be aware
of that.
Dr. McKee stated that he was not sure he understood. Was
Ms. McAdams meaning that the construction workers who came in to
work the project would stay after the construction was finished and
becce4 unemployed?
Council Member McAdams replied, no; the population projection
figures were an additional 20,000 people, and she was talking about
whets these people might potentially work. Dr. McKee responded
that, given the estimated sale values that were posted tot the
% 4,19
city of Denton city council Minutes
Meeting of January 7, 1996
Page Twelve
improvements, he did not believe that anyone need be concerned about
the unemployment of those persons who would purchase f200,ooo hones
or ;150,000 condomiti4ums. He had not considered this in his
analysis.
Council Member McAdams stated that it it was not a logical place for
these people to work, they might not purchase the housno.
Council Member Stephens stated that to one of Council Member
McAdams,@ questions regarding cost benefits, Dr. McKee had stated
thV', he had asked toe information on the impact from the staff. He
had not heard all that Dr. McKee had said and asked for his to go
through this portion again.
De. McKee restated that, In working with the planning committee
which was from a number of different departments, including the
independent school district and others, he had requested information
these and then, in working with the planning staff directly, had
hoped to collect more data than he actually did receive.
Council Member Stephens asked what type of information was this and
when did Dr. McKee ask for it.
Dr. McKee stated that he had asked for the information approximately
three days after he was brought in on the project in Novetbar.
Council Member Stephens then asked what particular information was
Dc. McKee Interested in.
Dr. McKee responded that he was hoping to be able to get into some
of the aspects of build out of toads and maintenance, police
substation, etc. He did have coats In the report on patrol cars and
personnel costs tot police, personnel costs tot the lire Department,
new tiro trucks, and so forth. This Included new high-rise snotkle
to service the high-rise buildings in the proposed development. He
was able to get this intocmation over the telephone; however, they
were looking toe other intocmation to come in through the process of
some forms which were being sent to the vacious departments. To his
knowloidge, none of these were received in time to be of use in the
analysis.
Council Member Stephens asked it Dc. McKee had. requested this
information In November and had not yet received the information.
Dr. McKee responded that the ittfoesatlon did not come in prior to
the meeting with the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Council Membec Stephens asked it Dr. McKee had asked again toe the
Information.
Dr. McKee responded, no; he had not asked again since the hearing
before the P&Z.
Council Member Stephens asked, knowing he ties going to be before the
Council, had he not asked again tot the intocmation?
Dr. McKee replied that he was not asked by the people who woes
retaining his services to continue working with the City in doing
that.
Mr. Roger Barrett, Metroplex Engineering, spoke in favor stating
that his fits had been retained as the planners for this project and
woes irsey pless14 to have an opportunity to work on a project of
this wagnitude and benefit to the City of Denton. This was a mixed
use development which was highly diverse tot a parcel of this size
and configuration. Thee* were some twenty-three uses that were on
the 700 acres. The size and shape of the parcel was very linage in
scope creating a corridor type of land use configuration with the
primary major thoroughfate running through the center. It was a
420
City of Denton city council minutes
meeting of Januacy 7, 1986
Page Thirteen
Community within a community concept which would provide housing,
employment and commercial activity. The parcel happened to Its
outside the original Denton Development Guides study boundaries,
During the planning process, Soso detsesinations were made as to
intensity zones on the tract and tried to meet the Guide ea rlosely
as possible. They had devised three basis study nodem - 82 aets$,
207 &Cree, and IOS acres - all having a variety of uses within the
nodes. His firs felt that all met the intent and integrity of the
Denton Development outdo. Fcom the site analysis standpoint of
Lakeview, they had tried to understand the natural beauty of the
site due to the Close proximity of the lake. They had Considered
the recreational activities, the regional pack areas which was prone
to flooding on occasion, but was still a beautiful seem to b4
maintained tot parks and open space not only for this development
but for Denton sc a community at large. The rest of the area was
foe private development for pools, tennis courts and gardens.
Lakeview development had proposed a very sophisticated amount of
landscaping on the project. This was possibly the most
comprehensive landscape plan in the planned development format which
the City had seen up to this point. Various parcels had bsen
designated along the primary major arterial and the dedicated public
rights-of-way tot ditfectnt types of screening and landscape
butters. Not only was this development making every attempt to save
the mature trees on the property, but were also making an extra
attempt in revitalizing the area by planting other trees, Mr.
Baccott then made a slide presentation of conceptual models of the
proposed cluster housing which could ber from 12 to le dwelling units
pec acts, the proposed seven-story aces which was projected to be
coc,otructed last. This was a conceptual look to show how highat
densities could be placed in an esthetically pleasing building
element without using a lot of land area. Provided were tennis
courts, pools and amenities. There Nas a tremendous oppo,ctunity,
working with the Cocps of Engineers, in the northern most parcel of
the property. The Timbecbcanch Park was over 20 sects in size.
After working some conceptual layouts with the Parks and Recreation
Department, his tits had begun future planning in the pack ateat.
There was potential for picnic ateas, nature testis, bridges,
possibly a field sports area and an amphitheatre. The map of the
planned development designated where the flood elevation would
encroach upon thes& areas. Also shown was the maximum probable
flood area. There was plenty of land available toe usable
coorsation and open space. The Coopec Creek Park had in excess of
90 acres, again with picnic, nature trails, sports Centet. In the
activity area, theca was the best potential Or tennis, racquetball
and (told sports. Thee* woes not many maturo teats in this area,
but the topography was gently rolling and would be easy to develop.
The last pack was Pecan Creek which was over 100 acres. Again,
working with the City Parks and Recreation Department, this was the
possible site for the first Denton Municipal. Golf Course area, in
summary, he wanted to recapitulate what the ►,akeview development was
all about. ?test, there was the issue of sanitary sewer
improvements. There was an opportunity ~o comprehensive planning
for east Denton. They would be provid lour lift stations and
force mains on the project and service rctly to the wastewater
treatment plant. Also concerning wattc improvements, there was a
proposed 20-inoh water line cunning along the north/mouth primacy
major arterial. The comprehensive planning of the project would
help alleviate future traffic problems on Loop 288 due to the major
arterial which would be built and connect Interstate 3S and
University. Conoetning the two school sites, a minimum of $645,000
of savings would be realized by the donation of the land. From
further investigation with the Denton independent school system,
this might bk a very conservative figure. After some explanation
from Gilbext Bernstein, they could be adding an additional $300,000
in savings to the Denton independent school system by the donation
of these two school sites. They had tried to place the school sites
close to Lake Lewisville and the pack areas. This was very
important for the children and the school district. Tt.ire were
sajok: open space and park improvements. Not only woes pack sites
421
city of Denton city council minutes
Meeting of January 7. 1906
Page Fourteen
designated on-site, but there was also 54.6 acres of on-site park
and open space area. Almost every cluster area had a minimum of lot
of its acreage allocated to a pack or amenity package for Its
WOOL. Again, the developer was providing $250,000 to the Denton
racks system which would help start improvements to almost 300 acres
on the regional parks. Last, the City of Denton general revenue
fund, as determined by Dr. Bill McKee, would probably be increased
over 15,000,000 a year, after City expenditures, when the project
was fairly built out.
' Council Member McAdams asked it Millet of Texas planned to do the
development themselves or would the tract be sold.
Kt. Barrett responded that, as with all development, not one single
entity had the monetary power to purchase the site, build all the
improvements, actually construct all the building elements
themselves, and have their own sales force to sell the unit. This
would be a cooperative venture which he eras sure would be worked out.
Council Member McAdams then asked, given that a number of davsiopecs
would be doing this project, what would be the squats footage in the
various types of buildings, such as the apattments, single-tamily
dwellings, etc. .
Mr. Barrett responded that this had not been delineated. In the
planned development document. On several occasions, the planning
staff had - recommended that they did not need that kind of
information, as far as minimum square footage for dwelling units.
They had asked if this was a necessary requitement, such as putting
an 800 square toot minimum tot an apartment or an 11,000 square toot
minimum requicement tot a townhome cc cluster unit. Those types of
details, up to this point, had not bean needed.
Council Member. MoAdams stated that she could understand why that
information was not needed for technical types of things, but when
the Council was looking at the proposal and wanting to know, as a
resident of Denton, what this was going to look like, how would one
arrive at the apptoximate cost of something It they did not know how
large it was? How would they know it was to be a $200,000 house or
a luxury apartment it they did not know at this point whether it was
goinq to be 600 square feet cc 11,000 square toot.
Barrett responded, exactly; these was no way anyone could answer the
Council right now during the early planning and zoning stages, What
they had set up in working with the City staff was a set of controls
which allowed for a comprehensive site plan review for each
individual parcel which might come to the City for development.
Hypothetically, when Millet of Texas began to develop a particular
phase of cluster housing, that particular plat would have to come
through the City and the reviewing body one more time tot approval.
There have been checks and balances set up via the wording from
staff which would allow the Council, as well as the Planning and
zoning commission, to look at some of the architectural detailing,
the set-back control, and the landscaping standards which were
proposed tot that development tract.
Council Member McAdams stated that she did not see that this process
would allow the Council to look at the project and see whether it
was a smaller house than they had anticipated and, therefore, that
it was not the luxury area which they ware expecting.
Barrett responded that was true; Chace had been no indication to
this developer or any other as to what a minimum tequicemeat was.
It the City had a particular standard or minimum requirement, they
would be able to tackle that.
Council Member KcAdams stated that she was trying to make it very
clear that the City did not have those :equirements. However, in
terms of information so that the Council ccttLd know what they were
looking at, it would be helpful.

BartOtt responded that neither he not the developer was prepared to
give those types of numbers at this meeting, but, at the time of
comprehensive site plan review before a single building could be
erected on a site, the Council would have an opportunity to review
the square tootages.
Council Member McAdams stated that one of the obvious concerns about
a project this large, which was being done by a number of people,
was that the Council would approve something with a number of
• stipulations attached, and then it began to be changed piece by
piece. In his remarks, Mr. Barrett had said that, after having
talked to Mt. Bernstein, there was the possibility of the donation
of some additional school land. Given that this was a planned
development with everything laid out, it seemed to her that, it this
happened, the Council was looking at their first amendment already.
Mr. Barrett stated that he might have misused the word. There had
always been a commitment from Miller of Texas to donate the two
school parcels to the Denton Independent school District.
Council Member McAdams stated that the school sites did not appear
on the document, She then asked it Mr. Barrett meant only two or
two additional school sites.
Mr. Barrett responded, just the two.
Council Membet McAdams stated that she must have misunderstood. She
thought Mr. Barrett had stated that, after further coavetsations
with Mr. Bernstein, Miller of Texas might be in the position of
offering something additional.
Mr. Barrett replied, no; what he had said was that, after
discussioue with Mt. Bernstein, the dollar tigure of $645,000 was
slightly too conservative. It would be an additional $300,000 or so
savings to the district because of the donation of the two school
sites by Aillst of Texas.
Council Member McAdams stated that the school system, particularly
Mr. Bernstein, had Said that two was not enough sites, While it
44ghb be calculated that this was a savings on these two sites, a
total cost would exist on two more sites just to get where
Mr. Bernstein wanted to be in terms of students. This was what she
had meant when she had spoken of putting up the pluses and minuses.
She suspected that when this was tallied out, the school site issue
would acme out to be cost rather than savings.
Mr. Barrett responded that he was unable to address adequately the
total amount of cost to the Denton school system. They were able,
hopefully, to project some of the benefits which were available in
the short timatrame which they had. He could only telterate what
Dr. McKee had stated. He also had been involved in three meetings
with the Denton Independent School District. At no time did the
Superintendent of the Denton tndepsndeat public schools or the
School Board *vat make it a requirement of this developer, or of
him, or of Dr. McKee that additional sites, other than those which
were propotled, wets needed of requited.
Council Member McAdams stated that, tot the benefit of those present
in the Council Chambets, she would like to read trom a letter dated
January 2 on Denton Independent School District letterhead from
Mt. Gilbert Bernstein with a copy to Dr. Robert Mabee. The letter
stated "Based upon the report generated by Dr. McKee, it is apparent
that the School District will need at least a total of 4 sites - 3
elementary school sites and 1 middle school site." McAdams
commented that, at this point, apparently Mt. Bernstein also thought
that the school district was going to receive 3 sites' because he
wrote 41"he developer has orally oommitted to 3 sites...."
Mt. Barrett replied that, in their next proposal, which should come
betore the Council during the next tow months, they were proposing
City of Denton City Council Minutes 423
Meeting of January 7, 1986
Page sixteen
another school site in the southern portion of the development.
During the whole process with the DIED, they had Constantly been
talking about the potential which they were developing south of
Pecan Cceek as well as the project which was being reviewed at this
meeting. That was what the three school sites were all about.
Council Member McAdams quoted from Me. Bornstein's letter "This
still leaves the District one site short, Mr. Barrett has indicated
he would try to find the District a fourth site, but this is
tentative."
Mr. Barrett responded, yes; he was in constant contact with Gilbert
Bernstein. They were having another field trip in a few days to
look over these particular parcels as well as other potential
development sites tot the School District.
Mr. Taylor Boyd, Senior Vice-President of Henry Miller Company,
spoke in favor stating that he was the joint venture manager for a
piece of property which would connect the properties under
discussion with Interstate 35. Henry Miller Company had purchased
the 135 acres in 1966 and had already planned to make the connection
at the on and oft ramp for purposes of giving access to their
property. while in the process of dedicating this land and setting
up the needed traffic parameters tot this site, they began to
coordinate the effort with Miller of Texas. They were pleased to
work with them, and he want*d to say that the connection would
happen. It would benefit them also to connect University with
Interstate 35.
Council Member Riddlespecgec asked for a timsfeame on when the
connection would be done.
Mr. Boyd responded that now they were in the process with the City
and the railroad. There was also a railroad to be crossed, the
MKT. They had begun working with them approximately six months ago
to see that this could be done. Their application tot that had been
approved, and they were in the process of doing the joint venture
with them, which stated that they would put up the arose signals,
etc. The dedication for the street was in the mill and would
probably be completed within 60 to 90 days, depending on the City of
Corinth. After that, construction could begin.
Mayor Stewart asked if they were planning on this pretty soon.
Boyd responded, yes, they were In the middle of it at the present
time. They were in the process of doing this connection anyway and
it blended perfectly with the Lakeview project. The tight-of-way
which they were doing would be two Sections of 36 feet of pavement
developed st different times as traffic warranted. The first one
would be 36 teat wide. They felt they might need this at the
initial phase for any trucks, etc. They were right on the
Interstate and might need this type of access. The roadway might
end up being slightly larger than the portion tot Lakeview.
Mayor Pro Tea Hopkins asked it the right-of-way would exceed 120
feet.
Mc. Boyd responded that the dedication at this time was tot 120 feet.
Mr. Steve Des Jardine, cepresonttng James Brown and Joseph Towall,
spoke. in favor stating that his clients owned the property at the
Shady Shores and tnterstate 35 intersection. They were currently
negotiating to purchase the property which was currently owned by
John Walker and Harold Holigan. Fa and Mr. Walker had reached a
verbal a7teeaent and wece now into the contract phase on the Ill
acres. This wee being done in coordination with Miller of Taxes on
dedicating the 120 feet right-of-May and building the initial two
lanes as soon as the City approved the building plans. A bond would
be put up for this construction. It for arty reason they were remiss
424
City of Denton City Council Minutes
Meeting of January 7, 1906
Page Seventeen
in tUilding the roadway, the City would be able to enact the bond
and complete the thoroughfare. They felt this was a strong positive
to the project, because it put the entire connection between
university and Interstate 35 within the boundaries of the City of
Denton without having to cross municipalities. They were very
excited about this project in the City, His firs owned several
other large parcels in Denton and were very heavily involved in
Denton's future.
Mayor Stewart asked it he was saying that there sight be a different
exit to the south othec than the original one shown.
Mr. Der Jardine responded, not instead of, but in addition to.
Mt. Bob Williams, 2707 Quail Ridge, Caccollton, spoke in favor
stating that he owned property north of this project on Miller
Road. He understood that with these developments and the utility
extensions, roadway, sta., his taxes would rise, but it was his
feeling that his property values would rise far in excess of the
cost to him.
Mr. Phil Cauley, owner of property in the area, spoke stating that
he was In favor.
Council Member McAdams asked Mr. Cauley whets he lived.
Mr. Cauley responded that he lived in Dallas.
Me,'4udy Grimes, a resident of the area, spoke in tavoc stating that
she was currently under contract with the Millec Company to sell
some land for the purpose of constructing the road. She and het
husband were also prepared to donate most right-of-way tot the
construction of the road. Mostly she felt that this large
controlled, planned development could do nothing but benefit the
city of Denton as opposed to numerous small, scattered areas of
uncontrolled development.
Ms. Karen Abernathy, 1204 Rio Grande in Township II, spoke in
opposition stating that she was not anti-gtowth but it could be
accomplished in an organized manner. She believed approval of a
project of this magnitude with this many gray areas would be
unwise. She was concerned that the jobs which would be created
would only be for the short and not the long tun. She was also
concerned about the proposed north/south artery in the context of
future traffic flow, She further stated that she believed that the
density was tnappcopriate and that the delivery of city services
would lag behind the development. There was a need to go more
slowly on a project of this magnitude. She stated that she felt the
intentions veto good, but the planned development as presented has
not be refined and, as presented, was not good. The project should
be retorted back to the Planning and Zoning Cowvaisslon tot the
details to be worked out and then brought back before the City
Council.
Me, Tom Joslin, residing at the intersection of Blagg and Geseltng
Roadd', spoke in opposition stating that he lived directly to the
north of the proposed development. He then presented a signed
petition asking the Council to over-rule the Planning and Zoning
Comaission's recommendation for approval. The P&Z did not follow
the staff recommendation regarding several of the conditions for
this planned development; i.e., streets, *to. The proposal as
presented would provide inadequate traffic controls for their area.
The project had a potential population of 20,000 on less than 700
maces which he felt was too dense. Also, there did not appear to be
enough single-tautly dwellings in the proposed plan. He would also
question the tax benefits to the City and felt the advantages toe
the Denton Independent School District would be offset by the number
of students who would be added to the schools.

Meeting of January 7, 1966

Mr. Mitchell Turner, 2118 Stonegate, spoke in opposition stating
that he was concerned that the Lakeview development would affect the
quality of Litt which'was now enjoyed in Denton. He was not opposed
to growth, but felt this particular project was too dense and would
change the character of the City. The conditions which were
attached to the planned development should be more restrictive.
This development could cause Denton to become the "bedroom"
community tar the metroplex. He had moved to Denton eight years ago
to obtain a better quality of life, and developments like Lakeview
would affect that quality. It the development were constructed, he
believed that there was the possibility that Denton could become
just like Irving, Plano or Arlington.
No. Claudia Brown, 318 Ridgeceest, spoke in opposition stated that
she believed the additional population would adversely affect the
services which wore offered by the Police Department. There were a
great many apartments in the proposal, and apartments wece quite
often for temporary residents.
Ms. Sharon Lowrey, rr~sidsnt of Township it, spoke in opposition
stating that, in her neighborhood, changes had been made from the
ociginal plan as the properties developed. They now had Wolfe
Nursery in their backyard. It would be wise to have very specific
commitments and information in writing prior to approval.
Mr. Hugh Ayer, 423 Mimosa, spoke in opposition stating that those
who lived in Denton were very fortunate. The city was goi«q to grow
and this presented a splendid opportunity to see that the City grew
in a positive mannet. He did have several concocna in relation to
the Lakeview development. He felt the density was ter too great.
Traffic was another concern and he did not tool the proposal should
be approved until specifics regarding the north/south artery wece
agreed to in writing.. He also did not fool that only eight acres of
pack land and the promised $250,000 seed money tot grants would be
adequate tot a development of this rise. There was also a debate on
whether that* would be two, three, or tour school sites donated.
His primary concern centered around procedures. The staff cecosmen-
dations to the Planning and Zoning Commission were not followed, and
the proposal was approved by the P&Z by a vote of 3 to 2. He felt
this particular project had been rushed and should be carefully
reconsidered prior to a vote by the City Council.
No one else spoke in opposition.
The Mayoc allowed Mr. Andecton five minutes tot rebuttal,
Me. Lew Andecton stated that he Colt most of the comments and
uncertainties which wece not clarified had been addressed. He
believed that many of the concerns spokon were detailed in the
revised plan which the Council had received. The one exception was
the issue at the school. At no time, did any members of the school
district mention a fourth site until he received the letter from
Gilbert Bernstein on January 6. Each and every time the issue was
discussed, they had talked about only three school sites. What he
would ask was that, when you looked at their development, you could
ask so much from a developer. In this case, the City was asking
them to give 91 acres of land for a six-lane thoroughtate with the
land having a value of close to 12,700,000. They wece donating two
school sites. he you looked at the sap to the north, their
development comprised only 1/4 of the area, The Denton Independent
School District had already purchased 70 acres of propecty just west
of their propecty for a high school. The School District had told
them that tour total sites would be needed in the area. With 1/4 of
the land, they woes donating 1/2 of the sokkool sites. In addition,
they had agreed to the third site. This site would be located in
the south area at the request of the school distciot. The project
to a whole and the impact upon Denton could only be felt when the
total bottom line picture was analyzed. He wished that Dr. McKee
had been able to have mote information for the Council. He had
426
City of Denton City Counoil Minutes
Nesting of January 7, 1986
Page Nineteen
specifically asked the City and asked Dr. KO[** to find out how many
police officers would be needed for the development, how many tic*
stations, *to., so that they could look at puce bottom line.
Whatever the figure was that staff had come up with still left a
bottom line of over 15,000,000 in excess revenues after deductinq
the expenses which had been brought up. The cost of the toad and
bridges, forgetting the 12,700,000 for the land right-ot-way which
they would be donating, would be in excess of 19,000,000. it there
was 19.000,000 just in pavement costs, it should not be hard to see
that there would have to be a lot of homes to pay for it. No one
who studied that figure closely could come to any other conclusion.
The occupation density in the high-ciao was difficult to project.
Due to other eoonomte factors, amortization, etc., it was difficult
to say when and/or it the units would till. Some of the high-rise
units might be built, and the density might be thecel however, none
of this would happen if there was not a market tot the unite.
During platting, the Council would have the right to assess what
size unit would be placed on the property. I% was difficult for
anyone to say what would happen in the year 2000 or beyond, What
was known was that Killer had to build the road now. They simply
had to come up with numbers which would justify the cost of the
roadway. With the highway in place, it was the market and what
people were willing and able to afford which would ultimately
determine what type product would qo onto the property. The
developer did not dictate the matkets the consumer dictated what
type of product they would buy and use. The Council could
appreciate the complexities in trying to envision exactly what woutel
be developed on the Land when looking at a project of this size.
Kayor Stewart asked it Killer of Texas intended to use City of
Denton utilities..
Anderton responded, yesj in working with Kr. Watson of the City
staff, they had considered alternatives including Texas Power and
Light. The commitment of Miller of Texas was with the City of
Denton. it they never built anything in the City, they still would
own 2,000 sores of land here. They had an interest in the quality
of life in Denton, because their very success did not depend only on
this particular 700-acre development, but also what would happen to
the entice 2,000 acres. They felt that, it they could week in
harmony with the City staff, it would be a plus tot both.
Council Member McAdams stated that, as an alternative way of looking
at what Miller was asked to give, while she could appreciate the
cost of those things, it the density in the whole parcel was
reduced, perhaps the additional school sites would rot be needed.
The possibility of reducing density was a good option to reduce the
cost of some of the "give sways" and still provide an area which
many people could live with somewhat better than the density which
was being proposed.
Anderton responded, this was exactly right. They had agreed early
on that in a project of this size, the key factor was that it pay
for itself and not be a burden on the City. In addressing that,
they had devised a sophisticated formula. The caw Infrastructure
alone for this project would exceed $75,000,000. With a comaitment
of this size, they wanted to be sure that the quality of the overall
project would be high. With that in mind, most of their data tied
everything to the traffic. In other weeds, not wait until a pcoblom
existed, then construct more lanes. They would put in the road
before anything happened. In essence, what they had done was to
protect themselves. They had projected the density, but it could
well be that they were wrong and the entire high density aces could
be down2oned. The cluster or multi-lastly housing might be used by
older people with no children. In either case, the worst thing that
could happen would be that the City of Denton would have the
right; of-way whether the coed was built or not,
Council Membecs MoAdame stated that the possibility of dowazoning
would not necassacily be pleasing. it would depend on how it was

done. Theca currently was a So units pet acre, multi-story portion
in the planned development, Miller could Como back to Council and
ask to have this put down to 3-story units and put 30 units per acre
and say that this was less dense, ?can the perspective of the
Council, it would not be less dense, because they would be crowded,
The market dictates what will happen. There were no guarantees that
theta would not be changes made in the planned development and soon
the document woui.d not remotely resemble what the Council was
considering at this meeting,
Anderton cesponded that much of the property would remain as
presented due to the fact that it abutted the lake property.
Council Member Stephens asked if the entire 2,000 acres which Miller
of Texas owned was inside the city limits.
Andecton responded, yes; theca were approximately 1,200 acres in
this parcel and an additional 000 acres On the west side of Denton.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
Jeff Meyer, Director of Planning and Community Developmont, teported
that 3 reply forms were mailed with 0 returned. This was an unusual
cases it was a planners dream to tie up this such land and know
exactly what was going to be done. It was also a planner's
nightsace, because, it it was not done right, the City was left with
the end result torevec. The developer was asking tot such more than
the Denton Development Guide allowed in the areas of density/
intensity, but, in turn, they would be giving the City streets,
improvements to existing roads, packs, etc. It the Council wished
to accept this planned development, he would ask that they also
adopt the conditions as cecommended by staff which went tat above
and beyond the conditions recommended by the Planning and Zoning
Commission. He did not blame the P&Z. There was a lack of
information, and information was being received late; however, he
did not feel that there were enough restrictions. The Council
agenda back-up material showed that the City was pretty restrictive
in what was allowed, and the Council would still have comprehensive
site plan and plat approval. If the Council wished to approve this
petition, Meyer asked that they please take all of the staff
recommendations on conditions which were very restrictive. This
proposal did violate the Development Guide; however, the developer
did make a concerted effort to work with staff In trying to work out
trade-offs. It had been suggested that this may have been pushed
through too fast Another possibility was to table the request and
further restrictions could be wocked out, Staff had reached an
agreement with the developer on the conditions. The Council had to
decide if they wanted to allow the density in order to get the
guarantee of the streets. Staff was caught in the middle, While
they loved to be able to plan this much property, this was density.
When completely built out, it would, in effect, double the
population of Denton. This would happen anyway, some where in time.
Council Member uiddlespergec asked if staff had calculated how such
this would cost.
Meyer stated that staff had never received the economic analysis
which they wanted. Nationally, a residential development never paid
its own way. It the City realized a $5,000,000 asset due to this
development, we would, in turn, have to build fire stations, police
depaitsents, squad cars, parks, etc. There would be a $2'10,000
donation for packs and the land, but it would cost $2,000,000 to
$3,000,000 to build it. The same was true toe the school district.
The tax information which was generated was not matched against
actual cost,
Council Member Chew stated that he felt all of this type information
was pertinent to making a decision. There was no way the Council
could review this pcoject without all of the pertinent intormation
and make an intelligent decision.
428
City of Denton City Council Minutes

Page Twenty-one
Council Member Riddlesperger stated that he thought this proposal
had been cashed a little.
Council Member Stephens stated that Meyec had mentioned that the
costs would tar outweigh the benefits, Mc. Andecton and Dr. McKee
had stated that there would be $5,000,040 in excess revenues after
the City costs had been figured in,
Mayer responded that he did not agree, it a financial analysis was
to be presented, s•jmeone else should look at it from the other
side. He could not think of any other area in - the country where
residential development paid its own way, It this was true, the
city would not be raising taxes every year,
Council Member Stephens asked it another economic analysis would
show what the increases in taxes would have to be to pay for the
services to th'_^ area.
Meyer responded that Staff would have to know how many additional
cars would be needed by the Chief. of Police, how many people he
would need toe staff, ate. Meyer then stated he did not want to be
taken wrong. He felt the developer was sincere, and this could be a
tremendous asset to Denton, but "let's not give away the store."
Mayot PSo Tom Hopkins asked how long it would take stair to get the
data together toe a work session.
Mayor responded that within a month, Stott could gather all of the
information.
Mayor Pro Tam Hopkins stated that it appeared to him to be a very
rushed situation, and he did not see all of the information which he
wanted to absolutely tie down on paper some of the issues. He would
like to see what would happen with the two thoco%ghtaces. He also
would like to see what the income from inoceati,rd sales tax and
revenues would be. Another question was who was going to work where
- he did not teal the assumption could be made that all of the
residents of the new development would Work .in Denton. It also
could not be assumed that the caly income to the City which would be
forthcoming from this development would be taxes,
Moy,,r stated that Council also had to remember that the area would
develop anyway, and the City needed to get the best quality growth
possible.
Mayor Pro Tom Hopkins stated that the north/south corridor was very
tmportta' to the City and Celt a work session could work out some of
thee* problems.
Council Member Chew asked if a continuation would be in order.
Council Member Riddlesperger asked would it not be proper tU corer
this back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. The voce from
Planning and Zoning was 3 to 2. Because of the hesitation on their
part, it seemed to him that the proper thing would be to send it
back to P&Z to work out the details and then to make another
recommendation to the Council, hopefully with a better vote than 3
to 2.
Mayor replied he wanted to point out that the City did not have any
economists on staff.
Council Member Chew stated he Celt that, with the proper information
in a work session, the Council could work through this problem.

Meyer responded the same problems would exist. The staff liked the
aspect oq havinq ohs plan to work with, It staff had to deal with
multiple developers tot this same parcel of land, it would be
totrible. (hers was no doubt In his mind that Millet of Texas would
sell oft pieces of this property. they would not develop all ct it
themselves. That was the history of land development in North Texas,
Mayor Pro Tom Hopkins stated that it developed by multiple
developers,. the City would not receive the north/south corridor.
Meyer replied that also, under this configuration, that* would be a
single plan, and any changes would have to come to Council for
amendments.
Mayor Stewart stated that this woul.a be a safety valve because
amendments would have to go through the staff and the Council.
Meyur responded that one of the recommended conditions was for a
comprehensive. site plan and plat approval which gave the Council two
opportunities to approve any amendments.
Council Membet McAdams stated that one of the things which she would
like to see addressed in any additional information was the packs.
There was a lot of talk about the leasing of Corps of Engineers
property, which would be quite expensive. She felt it might be
possible to develop facilities along the lake which might pay for
themselves through tees. Even it this were done, it did not addcees
the need of the projected 20,000 population in the proposed
development for neighborhood parks. There seemed to be a definite
shortage of neighborhood parks. It would appear that those living
in clustoc homes or high-rises would have a need for green space.
This green space would be needed near the homes and not over by the
lake whets a type of regional park would exist. No very much
Information regarding this need was available, and amount offered
was well below what the Council had previously recommended as the
acreage which should be dedicated to the City by developers. There
seemed to be no discussion of what would take the place of the park
areas.
Mayor Pro Tam Hopkins stated that a study of that issue would take
into affect the Corps land and what could be done with it,
Meyer stated that he felt the developer was sincere in wanting to
build a quality environment. Maybe a delay was the best thing.
Council Member McAdams stated that she certainly was not trying to
suggest that the developer was trying to "get to" the city in any
fashion, however, she thought that the market was going to be a
co~itcolltnq factor. The Council could state what they wanted;
however, it the developer got half-way through the development and
it just would not sell, then the City had a problem. The Council
should look at this with that possibility in mind and make sure that
there were some reasonable alternatives.
Council Member Stephens stated that it had been said this project
was a challenge to the community. lie wanted to mention to
Mr. Andecton that he appreciated the interest of developers in
working with the City of Denton. The City was going to grow and
everyone wanted to have a managed growth. The questions from the
City Council ware not meant to be Inhospitable, but they were used
to peorle following the guidelines for development. since this was
"oft the wall", it took a while to get used to it. There was only
one paragraph in the agenda back-up materials dealing with
utilities, it an economic analysis or impact study was to be done
tot a study session, he would like to have more information on the
utilities. Water and sewer issues had been only briefly addressed.
The wastewater ttsatment plant was scheduled for upgrading in 1995;
it might need to bo upgraded sooner if this development were

approved. This would tie In with the study that Dr. Littlefield was
conducting. It might affect what the cost of the service would be
and what would be the source of funds.
Meyer respondod, that was correct. There was the question also of
dual certification. me. Anderton might opt for City of Denton
electric utilities; it the property were sold, the new owner might
want Texas Power and Light.
Council Member Stephens asked it this could be tied down? Also,
nowhere had he seen the oversize cost issue addressed. The
developer would put the intrasteuctute in place on their property.
The City would have to connect to it; what would that cost? In
time, the City would be reimbursed as people tied onto the system.
His concern was what would have to be added to the rates for
existing ratepayers until the pro rata money was returned and Where
would this money come from now? The City had been able to absorb
thiss cast due to piecemeal development in the past. This was
significant growth end might present funding problems,
Acting City Manager Rick Svehla repotted that he thought it was
important to understand that theta were problems and staff had
attempted to address them. It needed to be kept in everyone's mind
that it the property wad not developed in one large piste, the City
had a history of having problems in obtaining tight-of-way and
agreements on building structures. It was a definite plus that
Miller was reaoy to agree to these. Regarding utilities, he also
wanted to be sure that Council Membet Stephens understood that
Miller of Texas was agrseinq to build to the plant. In other words,
the City would not be building out to the development for them to
connect. Staff would be glad to furnish additional information
cogardinq police and fire services it that was the wish of the
council. It was difficult to talk about attest replacement costs
because most of this development would be built out before those
costs were incurred. Normally, streets wets designed for a 20-year
life. It he understood the developers plans and projections, he
was talking about a S- to 10-year build out. In terms of this type
of data, limited data was given due to the fact that not very much
costs would be inoucred during the first 10 years.
Mayer stated that he felt it was Incumbent upon the developer to
provide this type of Infatuation. Staff would analyze the data;
however, it staff had to gather the information, they ware doing the
developer's job.
Council Member Stephens stated that he had previously been retorting
to ovetsizing of utility lines - getting the pipe out to where the
developer would tie on. The line was going to eventually serve mote
than just this acreage and, therefore, any overaizing would be done
now, and he was referring to the cost and the source of funds.
Another point regarding the sewer line was that, even though the
developer built the line from their property to the plant, the
capacity would be used up at the existing plant at a faster rate.
The council had earlier P.iseussed impact tees, and this was a
concern which should be ade.tessed here.
Chow motion for continuance until the first council meeting in
Vebtuacy so staff could gather the Information which the Council
needed.
Council Member Riddlesperger stated that he felt this was a shoct
time and still thought the Planning and Zontnq Commission should be
involved. He felt the P&Z should close the proposal and refer it
back to the council.
Mayor Stewart stated that the P62 had already reviewed the planned
development and mAde their recommendation to the Council. The
public hearing had already been held.

Meeting of January 7, 1986

Council Member Chew asked Meyer it 30 days would be adequate.
Meyer stated that he could only speak from the City's side. The
developer had a clock ticking on his money.
Meyec then stated that the developer suggested that the Council make
their minds up one way or the other,
Council Member Stephens asked, when?
Meyer responded now.
Mr. Andecton requested to speak to the Council.
Mayor Stewart asked it two members of the Council wished to heat
Mt. Andecton.
Council Member Chew stated that he wanted to be sure that this was
what Mr. Anderton was saying.
Council Member McAdams s"~atod that she wanted to be sure that,
without the information the Council wanted, me. Andecton wanted them
to make a decision.
Me. Anderton stated that what the council saw betoce them at this
meeting was 700 acres. This project might seem new to many people.
They had sent lettece asking for input, over six months ago to
address the size and particular problem,: which a project of this
size would bring to the City of Denton, in working with staff, the
same information which the Council was asking toe now, they had
asked for in the very beginning. In return, they had been asked to
commit more and more money and provide more and more commitment from
their side of the table. To be more specific, when this 700 acres
was brought in, they had asked at that time to have meetings with
all department heads, which they had held. All the same issues
which the Council was asking to have resolved at this meeting had
been around the table once or twice. He understood that this could
be put oft and put oft until the perfect development in everyone's
mind could be achieved. He felt it was unfair when the developer
made a commitment of this size and, in effect, had capitulated on
every roquost from the City to delay. Their clock kept cunning and
there were other alternatives available. Miller of Texas had novae
said that they had to have this particular plan. This was what had
evolved out of all of the meetings. They thought they had an
agce' ment with staff as near as they could prior to this sooting.
Another delay would place a burden on them when every month the
interest was costing them $600,000. They wets a little disappointed
that they were not better represented at this meeting from the City
staff. Theta was no issue which the Council had brought up which
they wanted an answer for, either now or 30 days from now, that they
had not addressed two months ago. Why veit any longer? It seemed
to his that the Council would like to have a project of this type,
when they considered that this was only one phase. In other words,
the Council would have opportunities to addtese the key issues on
the southec,i route 30 days or six months from now. It Council
wanted to reduce the density, that could be done on the southern
portion of the development. This whole project was either going to
work or not work based on the densities. Miller of Texas could not
build a $9,000,000 road without the units and that would not change.
Council Member &iddlespergee stated that this was the biggest single
development which the Council had faced, and they would like to have
all of the so-called agreements and understandings tied down. What
the Council was saying was that they wanted everything spelled out
and agreed to very specifically to that they would know exactly what
they were doing. At this point, all they could took at ware the
tecommendatiors by staff, and agreements and understanding which had
been talked about at this meeting. He personally felt this was a
432
City of Denton city Council minutes
meeting of January 7, 1986
Page Twenty-five
tromeadous thing tot Denton. All those who spoke against the
development vote not opposed to concept but wets rather concerned
that specitius be tied down. That was what the Council was asking
for in this wait to make the final decision in 30 days. It was not
that the Council did not appteoiar,e the work which had been done
with the staff.
Anderton replied that this was where he was confused. They thought
they had addressed all of those issues in the last revision of the
plan. Before Council were specific conditions which were specitt-
cally designed and drawn to tie down what he felt were the issues
which wets raised by the Planning and Community Development
Dapattment. He had given the city what millet of Texas could live
with, and he thought this Information was in the additional
conditions.
Mayor Stewart asked fir. Anderton it he could live with the staff
recommendations which had been made,
Anderton responded, yes. On every issues which was made, every
condition which Start had added, Killer had agreed to give in to
those.
Mayor Stewart stated that there were a number of recommendations
which had boon male. The Director of Planning and Community
Development had suggested that the Council adopt those staff
conditions, could Mr. Anderton live with that?
Anderton responded, yes. On the first phase, Miller of Texas could
live with every one of those conditions. They had serious financial
commitments that they had to make now on the additional 400 acres,
or the main tie, which would in effect be the first to actually see
development. They actually had bought time. Everyone, especially
David Ellison, had been told that they needed to have this done
before the end of the year because that was when their time was up
on their contract. They had already delayed and committed money and
thought they had the issues resolved. As tat as Council Member
McAdams questions regarding the park situation, Steve Brinkman could
address those. All of these things had boon addressed.
Council member McAdams stated that the issues were not addressed in
the materials which the Council had. She also felt it was a little
bit unfair. Mc, Anderton spoke of having worked on this plan for
six months or to, and then he came betoce Council with this type of
intormation and was asking them for a decision. The Council had a
responsibility to the citizens of Denton as a whole. This was their
first look at this, and he was asking the council to say yes or no
right now because Miller of Texas did not have time to wait
anymore. She did not believe that was a fair attitude and teankly,
without looking further and having additional answers, she would not
vote In favor of the proposal. She felt it could be a positive
thing tot Denton, but she did not know that tot certain in its
present form without some additional information. tf Mr. Anderton
could afford to wait, there was a that possibility the council would
say yes,, however, it he could not wait, as tar as she was Concerned,
she would vote no.
Anderton stated that Ms. McAdams had made it clear that, with
present information, she was against this. Did they not have the
opportunity to hear what the other Council members felt as It may or
may not be worth their waiting. They had given all that they could.
Council Member Chew stated it Mr. Andecton pressured a vote at this
meeting, he would vote no due to a lack of Information. He was for
growth and felt this development could be a positive thing toe
Denton but he could not be pressured into making a decision of this
nature without the proper knowledge.
Council member Stephens stated that he wanted to see the economic
analysis with the negatives and positives,
433

Page Twenty-Slit
Kayoc Pro Tau Hopkins stated that he would echo council Member
Rtddlasperget's comments regarding the people who had voiced an
opinion on the project were seeking specifics to be tied down. This
was all that the Council really needed. They all felt this was a
very positive thing, but they did want to tie those things down in
their- own minds. The Council did appreciate the work that Millet of
Texas had done. The Council had been aware of this project tot
approximately one month, and it vas somewhat difficult to get into a
project of this magnitude. Hopkins further stated that he did not
and- he wanted to and would prior to voting.
Andecton asked what information It was that the Council requited an4
who would furnish it. He had provided information through the
consultant studies, even though he had paid for them but had no
input, and It appeared that the Council was now saying that they did
not accept the figures. Thirty days from now, how would the Council
get the answers which they would believe? Miller had given the
Council a set of figures, and what he was hearing was that none of
them were accepting them on their merit. He felt that the City
should come up with figures to dispute the consulto~t reports. It
they did not feel there would be a $5,000,000 cash low plus when
the development was completed, show him why. They had asked before
for the City to provide this; It was not his job to run the City.
Mayor Pro Tom Hopkins stated that Mr. Andecton was exactly right.
The Council did want the staff to put together figures for their
study.
Council Member McAdams stated that the Council was not saying the
figures were incorrect, only incomplete. They only showed the
income and not the expenses.
Andecton stated that the figures did reflect all of the expenses
which Miller of Texas had been given by staff,
Council Member McAdams stated that she was sorry it Kc. Andecton was
not given something which he should have had. What Council was
saying now wan that they would like to have it before they made a
decision.
council Member Riddlesperger stated that Kt. Andecton had answered
some of the councils questions at this meeting, An example was the
completion of the connection to interstate 35. None of the Council
had any indication that this was possible, although it had been
discussed. The Council wanted to have tied down what they were
agreeing to, what was Millet suggesting at this meeting that had not
been done before?
Mayor Stewart stated that he felt it was tied down by the staff
recommendations. It these were agreed to, it would tie It down. He
felt personally that Miller had done a good job. Maybe in a month,
the Council might accept it; however, he felt if the conditions as
recommended by staff were attached to the planned development, he
personally was willing to vote for the project at this time,
Council Member McAdams stated that one of her problems was that the
conditions were not in place when the proposal was before the
Planning and Zoning Commission. The answers to the questions which
might have been asked at that point, were missing. This was not the
usual manner to handle this developments. This was a tremendously
changed packet from what had been reviewed by the P&Z because of the
add-one.
Mayor Stewart stated that Jeff Meyer had said it wet a good thing if
accepted with the staff conditions. He had asked Mr. Andecton it he
were willing to accept the staff conditions, and he had responded,
yes.

Council Maabee McAdams stated that this did not answer some of the
other questions that might have been asked it those same conditions
had been in plaeo when the proposal was before the Planning and
zoning commission.
MaYOr Stewart stated that he understood Me. McAdams concerns but
also felt that Mr. Anderton deserved an answer, and he was willing
to give him one.
Mayer reported that it would take some time for each department to
produce the types of tiguces which wets being asked toe by the
council.
Council Member Chew stated he felt the staff should drop other
projects and get this done,
Mayor Stewart stated that there were other developers who wets
coming in who needed work done and staff could not drop everything.
Council Member Chow stated that was correct, but staff could drop
enough things to gat this project done.
Anderton stated that he appreciated the Council's comments and, it
Mayer could get the data in 30 days, he would like, to have the
information a few days in advance of the meeting, At 5:00, prior to
going before the Planning and Zoning Commission, he had been handed
the requirement to build the six lanes all the way and at the
beginning of the project. It miller of Texas and the staff could
work together, he would lend the assistance of the consultants that
he was paying. It they could be assured that the bottom line costs
from the City would be ready in 30 days, they would be happy to
acquiesce and wait until that tine.
Council Member Chew stated that the meeting would be on February 4,
1986.
Hopkins second to the notion for continuance until February 4, 1986.
Council Member Stephens stated that Me. Anderton had said something
which bothered him. He had stated that he had received the intocma-
tion just prior to the Planning and Zoning Comsission meeting. How
much time was given the Planning and Zoning Commission with
Dr. McKee's study?
Dr. McKee responded that the report was given to the P&z on the day
betoce Thanksgiving.
Council Member Stephens stated that the P&Z members probably saw the
report on Sunday oc Monday and than had their meeting on Wednesday.
That did not give them enough time to study the figures.
Council Member Alford stated that the Council had all basically said
the same thing which was that their concern was for what was best
tot the City or Denton. He did not think that anyone could look at
what was happening and not feel some excitement in the plan. The
Council needed the time for study so that they could ultimately do
what was talc tot everyone concerned.
Mayor Pco Tom Hopkins stated that he felt it would be appropriate to
have a work session to go over the start's recommendations one at a
time, perhaps on the next Tuesday. He also wanted to compliment the
developer. There had bean no project which had ever been before the
Council which had the data and input as this one had.
Vote on the motion to continue until February 4, 1986 passed 6 to 1
with Mayor Stewart casting the "nay" vote.

vote, HOAdame "aye," Hopkins "aye," Stephens "aye," Alford "aye,w
Rtddlesperget "aye," Chow "aye,w and Mayor Stewart ways." Motion
carried unanimously.
3. The Council considered approval of Z-1779, Lakeview planned
development.
Mayor Stewart stated that this was not a public heating and the
council was not required to listen to either pros or cons. A
written request had been received from Mr. Judd Holt who wished to
speak, The council had agreed to let Mr, Holt speak for 3 minutes
and to allow 3 minutes tot rebuttal, it any.
Me. Judd Holt stated that the main question was one of density. It
theca wee no control of growth, Denton would become just another
bedroom community with no separate identity. The key to the quality
of growth to Denton was density, open space and the amount of coon.
Each Council member had an opportunity to apply a vision for the
City's future, an opportunity to determine the future of Denton.
This was a very important decision. He felt the residents of Denton
should envision an acea which they would be glad to take out of town
visitors to see; a section of town which had pleasant streets and
native treas. Denton was a diverse area; there was a need for
duplexes, apartments, varying sizes of lots. There should possibly
be attractive high class. Residents would want to show visitocs
that the new section of Denton was an extension of the old section
and inoludsd not only the smaller lots of SF-7 and SF-10, but also
SF-12 and 87-16. Not everyone who wanted a larger lot should have
to move outside the city limits of Denton. Residents would want
visitors to see neighborhood packs, not )list park areas along the
lakes. Also there should be several elomentary schools and junior
high schools foe the new area as well as police and tits substations
as welt rs recreational and athletic facilities. Residents would
also want to be able to tell visitors that this atea was not
subsidized by the rest of Denton. The test of Denton was able to
improve the existing toads, existing packs, build more recreational
centers end improve its schools because it had not been saddled with
a tremendous economic burden brought about by Lakeview. It he vote
a developer trying to sell this plan, he would down play the fact of
absentee developers and the uncertainty of the quality of the
buildings to be constructed in the acea. He would talk of orderly
development and tell the Council that this would be a method of
accomplishing that goal. He would not tell the Council that orderly
development could be achieved by more packs, mote school land, note
lands tot police, ties, libraries and wider stteetr. He would not
tell the Council that theta could bn more orderly development with
more single family housing than multi-tamily housing. He would
refer to the people who opposed the development as proponents of
no-growth and make it a growth versus no-gtowth issue. Personally,
he enjoyed the growth which Denton was experiencing, but he also
wanted people living in the City who intended to remain in Denton.
It he'were the developer, he would talk to the Council about the
jobs which would be created by Lakeview and would not mention that
most of those employed would, in all likelihood, come Cron the
Lakeview acea. He also would not mention that most this acea would

become an area of ttandients and not an area where people would come
to stay. Ons of Murphy's laws stated "Whatever they say it,s going
to cost, it will cost a whole lot mare," He would add also, "They
are not going to pay for it - you and 1 are." it he was the
developer, it would be sure that the debate revolved around cost
benefits. He had read several things about the cost benefits but
was contused. He did not think anyone in Denton would be opposed it
there were note lots added - more single lastly homes. He would not
be opposed to a plan which dedicated 60 to 70 acres of park land as
long as it did not include the Corps of ';ngiaeot property. He would
not oppose a plan which gave adequate land for community centers,
including recreational centers and libraries and land which could be
used for fire and police substations. He would not be opposed to a
plan which gave land for a now high school, a junior high school and
a sutticient number of elementary schools. He would not be opposed
to a plan which presented an environmental impact study and which
did not exceed the present density levels. It the developer was
seriously interested in the City of Denton and was developing this
property, he would most with the citizens and the Council and
prepare a plan which everyone could be proud of. it, however, the
developer was solely interested in the property for speculation
purpooes and quick profit, the Council would probably not hear from
them again.
There was no rebuttal.
Council Member McAdams stated that the haJ thought about this
development a lot, talked to people, looked at the statistics of
what was proposed and what the City looked like now. She realized
that the City would grew; however, one of the important things to
consider was what. was it about Denton that the residents had come to
know and love. A large part of thit was the type of lifestyle which
the residence could enjoy. She raeognlxed that it was true that
this was not perhaps au dense a development as some In different
cities; however, Denton had chosen to something a little different.
Denton had chosen to have more space even if it cost more and had,
by and large, agreed to pay for that. Residents talked about how
much they enjoyed living in Denton. The vurrent density was 4.6
units per aare and Lakeview was a development which would be at
least 1/3 as large as tGte curront City and with a density of 16
units per acts. This wad considerably more than what the City had
at this point. She did not tool this would provide the sore quality
of life which Dentonites had come to enjoy. She would like to
Lakeview develop but she would like to $ee it develop with the same
density as the cost of the City. A density of 5 units pat acts on a
balanced scale, with the exception of the high ties, would be
acceptable.
Council Momber Stephens stated that at the meeting of January 17
Council had been told that the development would represent a $10.9
million loss and than on January 30, they had been told there would
be a $276,000 gain. This was the ease property with the name
proposal and he did not understand the difference. He did not know
what to believe and wanted an explanation from the staff.
Acting City Manager Rick Svehla reported that there wets two issues
which staff did not feel had been appropriately presented at the
January 17 meeting. The first 0 these two were tines and feed. In
the calculations, staff did not look at any fines and tees tot any
police activities or other tees which normally ocolic within the
city. Staff based the 4dditional number on a total split
(population for population) between what was existing in the City
now and the adoltional 20,000 people which would be '.n Lakeview. it
included, it represented approximately $1.6 million. The remainder
of the alteration to the tines and fees was that portion which would
be received from the County, at current levels, tot the per capita
cost of fife protection which Denton provided in the County. Staff
felt certain that this would be at least $400,000 and probably
more. A very conservative approach was taken as to population
47
city of Denton Ctty Council Minutes
Meeting of February 4, 1906

growth in the Lakeview project. The second change to the
calculation was the Ln atea of the Packs and Recreation Department
area or the capital improvements area. At the January 17 meeting,
state discussed the information that the Director of the Parks and
Recreation Department had provided to the Council outlining an
additional $13.0 million in capital impcovexents to all of the
parks. In a memorandum dated January 30, some of the changes were
discussed which staff felt wets appropriate. The first was 11.0
million which Mr. Brinkman had placed in the estimates for pack land
acquisition in lieu of the Corps of Engineer land. The assumption
was that there might he some problem In obtaining this land from the
Corps. This had been researched and lease forms had been received
from the Corps. Brinkman had reported that he knew of no
circumstance whets the Corps had refused to lease this type of land
for park facilities. The other portion of the cost change came from
the large packs which were going to be developed. staff took the
point of view that since these were large areas similar to the Worth
Lakes area, that they would be more community in nature. The costs
wets therefore split out with some of the cost to be borne by other
subdivisions other than Lakeview. Yn terse of some of the other
facilities such as a golf course, *to., staff's position was that
they were be note municipal I.n nature and not solely tot the
Lakeview development. Appropriate reductions were made to the costs
tied to Lakeview. The thicd reduction was In the area of sales
tax. Attec review, an error had been found in the information
presented to the Council on January 17 having to do with the way the
growth occurred and what staff was assuming to be the amount being
paid In. The actual amount of dollars per person generated by
Lakeview had been revised. However, in the method of calculation
based on the growth of Lakeview, it would make for an increase in
sales tax. There were other areas which were reviewed and there
were calculations which could be done in terms of construction,
Assumptions could or could not be made oc. the cost of wages which
would affect the cost of construction. Staff did not feel
comfortable with these and so they were omitted. Basically the
throe areas of change in the projected revenues and/or expenditures
wets the sales tax, tines and tees and the packs.
Council Member Stephen, stated that the city could not depend on U.
S. Government land forever fne and asked how long could the public
land be used and would there be park space. Another issue which had
not be addressed in the pro forma was that the ad valorem taxes of
126,0 million was at build out in 15 years. What would be the taxes
tram the first to the fifth year, etc. so that the city could be
sure that the difference in the cost of police and tics, etc. did
not have to be made up by the current residents until the and of the
build out. where the 1276,000 per year gain would bra realized. He
was not opposed to the growth but rather wanted to be auto that it
tit with the other proposals which had bean presented for Denton tot
controlled, orderly growth. The Council wanted Lakeview or any
other development to follow that same general plan, He had
reservations regarding the development and density was one of them,
Was there any negotlation room on the density? He personally Celt
the density as proposed was wrong for Denton and could not support
it. Was there any middle ground whist, could be reached,
Council Member Riddlespergnr slated that the figures showed the
total revenues of the Lakeview development would be 136,306,501 and
the expenditures would be 128 million plus the capital Improvements
of about 17 million more. This would leave a net gain of 1276,085.
Council Member McAdass stated that it was welt to remember, as the
Council discussed the economirs of a situation, that one of the
things which was known from history was that a strictly residential
community had to have excessive taxes in order to pay for itself.
There was not a ronsunity anywhere which would be searching for
heavy industry if the industrial base was not needed to help provide
taxes to support the residential areas. An ideal community would
have beautiful houses, a tow commercial areas and parks, The real
4 14'
city of Denton city council Ninutee

Page Ten
issue was not one of whether or not this development would genecate
extra tevenue for the City but rather that an additional industrial
base was needed to take care of the City's needs now and even more
would be needed to take Care of Lakeview. Even mote importantly, it
was difficult for her to tsconcile 16 units per acre as being the
same quality of life whlah was now heing enjoyed with less than 5
units per acre.
Council Member Stephens asked toe a definition of "cluster -detached"
veceus "alustec-attached."
Cecile Carson, Urban Planner, reported that the cluster question was
a definition problem. The Lakeview proposal ranged from cluster
housing being detached which could be zero lot line type housing or
houses built on one property line with a 10 feet or sidsyard setback
before there was another house. Cluster housing could also include
fourplexes or duplexes, attached type dwellings. It could also be
as much as sixplexes, which were proposed in some areas in the
City. Staff would point out that there were difteront deetynations
which had been ylven to the cluster housing in these areas which had
nothiny to do with the number of units. The designation for
attached or detached did not relate to the total number of units
wh1iih were shown. tt was possible that in some of the areas the
total number of units which were proposed would not be developable
because they were detached units, such as zero lot line or small lot
size. In other areas there might be requests for additional density
to balance this out.
Council Member Stephens then stated that cluster attached could then
be a row house with common walls,
Caraon responded that the Council had previously approved an
ordinance for a development on Teasley r,ane and Hobson which
included cluster type housing which was fuurplexes to sixplexes,
which would be six units in a row.
Council Member Stephens asked it the Planning and community
Development Department should dictate that as astetick should be
placed by the cluster designation on planned developments spellinq
out speaitics.
Carson responded that the staff understood the problem and this was
the reason for the comprehensive site plan on all planned
developments so Council could see actual layouts and lot plans.
Council Member Stephens stated that he felt that site planning and
zoning should go together on developments,
Mayor Stewart asked regarding the high times, it the density were
all on 1 or 2 floors, would this not be quite dense. For example.
theca was a 25 story high rise on the campus of Texas Woman's
University with many apartments and a resulting high density.
However, theca was quito a lot of open space surrounding the
building. R* understood that the high rises proposed for the
Lakeview development would be 6 floors and they were also proposing
to have areas around the structures which would be landscaped with
recreational areas. Was this correct?
Carson replied that there was nothing on the site plan, information
had been pceeented in a conceptual nature which included these
amenity packages,
Mayor Stewart then asked if the state was aware that this would be
high rises and not 1 or 2 floor buildings.
Carson responded that staff was aware of the difference between the
So units pec acre along the lake and the cluster housing which
averaged to be approximately 12 units for acre, There was a
distinction and staff was aware of the 109 acres which would be

something new and different toe Denton with the high ties. However,
staff also realized that there was a definite change in the overall
density of the City it only the cluster and multi-family was
eonsidoced without the 109 acres of high cis*.
Mayor Stewart stated that his point was that there ware already
other areas in the City, such as TWU. NTSU and Good Samacitar
Village, which had these types of high cis* buildings. Another was
under construction at Westgate Hospital.
Carson responded that information had been provided to the Council
on the two high else building at North Texas. There was some
difficulty in comparing these to Lakeview because in soma ways, they
were very different. One would be residential uses for private
citizens while the other would be for either students or
institutional type uses. There were, however, some comparable uses
in the City as toe as the high rise was concerned.
Mayor Pro Tom Hopkins stated that in other planned development
units, for example the Loop 288 corridor, Council would be looking
at approximately the same number of units per aoce at ultimate build
out as Lakeview.
Carson responded that the planned developments along the Loop which
had been approved ranged from a maximum density of 25 units per
acre. Poe the remaining property, planned development which had not
had comprehensive site plans approved, the City had used an overall
average of 19,78 unite poc acre for multi-family in order to figure
out the total number of unite along the property. There were some
developments in the city which averaged as many as 40 units per
acre, there were smaller complexes which ranged from a to i0 units
per acre tot multi-family. There was quite a lot of diversity in
Denton as tar as multi-family unite were concerned.
Mayor Pro Tom Hopkins stated that the point was that at ultimate
build out, Loop 288 would have basically the same density as
Lakeview.
Carson tepli-id that there was a possibility that the total number of
units would be the same.
Council Member McAdams stated the problem was that this entice 700
acres would be an dense as Loop 289 and the univecelties. It was
one thing to have a pattloulac area this dense. She did not have un
objection to a 7 story high else but when the total area then came
to be as dense as this, it was considerably different from the
current lifestyle in Denton.
Mayor Pro Tom Hopkins stated that if the Counail looked at the
density as It existed In the past when the Denton Development Guide
was developed, the density in Denton was not 4.7 units par acre but
rather 6.2. The density was projected at that time to get into the
upper reaches of 6.5 to 6.7 units per acre as the City began to
grow. This particular development would still leave the total
drnsity toe the City at approximately 6.0 units per acre. There
ware several things which should be studied. This was a very
difficult decision to make. All of the Council Members had
experienced concerns regarding the density and realized that the
economics of the project was not something which they could look
at. Many years ago when the lake was at its normal level, this area
was very viable place. He had seen this area go downhill and was
now basically a swamp and a slum and was not improving, However, it
could be the greatest asset that Denton had. The Council needed to
take a good look at developing an asset such as this lake. tt had
been stated that the high rise proposal was lunacy, however, he
would venture to say that it would be the first area to till up. To
him. this was an opportunity to redevelop the lake. Whether
Lakeview, developed or not, the City needed a road to connect Highway
390 and tnterstate 35. This had been discussed during strategic
i

planning session. The alternative to a large development such at
Lakeview would be developing a hodge podge over many years ct 40 to
50 acres at a time and trying to get 120 test of eight, at-way,
trlfteen years from now, the city would still be trying to get 120
feet of eight-of-way. At the time the conneoeinq toad would need to
be built, the citizens of Denton would be faced with the
responsibility of having to btty the remainding right-of-way and
constructing the street. Multi-developments would increase the
City's problems, as he saw it. The street would cost $9.75 million
at today's costs and there was no telling what the cost would be in
15 years. One of the greatest things about development along the
lake was the opportunity to improve the Pecan Creek area. Brinkman
had mentioned building bicycle trails, a golf course, and other
facilities as the City extended out in this dtcention. The City
would need the school sites which Lakeview had otfered and probably
soma more. He also felt that the industrial base would be needed to
support the development and felt there would be enough people,
cusiness and Industry and jobs created to more than offer the City
those things of which they Could be proud. He did not view this
development as a nightmare but rather as an opportunity. He wished
that the Council could take as comprehensive a look at all develop-
ments as they had Lakeview. He had looked at this proposal from the
viewpoint of staff, the developer, the new residents of the
development and the people now living in Denton. Not everyone would
afford to live on a 16,000 square feet lot at 135,000 to $40.000 par
lot as they were now. High rise, high density structures were
talked about extensively In the Denton Development Guide. The Guide
stated that these buildings would be needed around all of the major
nodes. There were 3 major nodes when the Development Guide was
initially done, the document was already outdated and was In process
of being revised. He could already see 3 more major nodes which
would be necessary In Denton in the next 10 years. Council had
access to information which gave them the opportunity to envision
where the intensity and development was going to occur. Around
these major nodes, the intention was to develop parity or to
deintensify as you moved away from these nodes. Lakeview was not
right in town and would not affect any development in the City of
Denton. As he saw it, this proposal met the Denton Development
Guide.
Council Member McAdams stated that it was hard to say that the
proposal not the guidelines when it was over on every criteria.
Regarding to the existing density when the Guide was developed, the
people on the committee were concerned about the excess density and
the Guide recommendation was to keep the density lower, not to make
it go higher. The overall density of this proposal would be 16
units per acre, did not follow the Denton Development Guide, and
which was much greater than any other development which had been
done before.
Council Member Chew stated that the Council had listened, evaluated,
and study session and work sessions on this issue. Denton wAs going
to grow and the council needed to took at the pluses and minus of
this particular development. When it was first brought before the
city Council, he was bitterly opposed to it. Over the past few
weeks, Council had studied the issues, staff had brought in
recommendations and many discussions had been held. The Council
could debate this proposal all night.
Chew motion, Hopkins second to approve 2-1779 with the staff
recommendations.
Council Member Stephens stated that one plan foe a piece of property
of this size was a good idea. No one had suggested other, than 120
feet of right-of-way. Also discussed had boon a 4 or a 6 lane
street, contingent upon the number of residents during the build out
period. The conclusion was that this vote would determine the
future of Denton from a density point of view. He personally felt
this was too concentrated and could be adjusted. He liked the idea

of Lakeview from the standpoint of one group to work on develop
meet. Too eoneentested or not seemed to bo the issue - not growth,
He felt this was too concentrated.
Council Asubec McAdams added that the staff recommendation was In
opposition tn the peoposal, not in favor,
Council Member Riddleapergat stated that he had looked at the
material and had traveled out to the lake and driven up and down
every street out there. Theca were some ooncentrationa in place now
worse than this. The Council had etCaQgled and had had to come to
soma type of Conclusion.
Council Member Alford stated that each of the Membecs had gone
through a period of back and forth in their minds on this issue.
Interesting input had been received team citizens. Thanks should
also be given to the Denton Record Chronicle for information which
they had provided. This issue had been contusing but the pluses and
minus had to be weighed.
Mayoc Pro Ten Hopkins thanked the davelopet for his congeniality and
patience while this proposal had bean delayed.
Council Mambec McAdams ctated that this was not an either/or issue.
The Council could approve the pcoposal toe Lakeview but with reduced
done I ty .
Mayor Stewart stated that this would be a fitet time In the history
of Denton that a planned development of this size had been propose:
which addressed the issues of streets, packs, school sites and a
diversity of housing tk,ae and densities. As a planned development,
it could be carefully monitored, The street which was proposed
would cost approximately $10. Fifteen or twenty years from now, it
could cost as such as ;40 to $So million to build, The developer
was offering three sites. The last two school sites which the
Denton Independent School District obtained, they had paid for at a
cost of $ 00,000 to ;400,000. The developer was offering three
school sites for tree. There were pack areas offered which could
provide a path from the center of Denton up to the and of Lake
Lewisville. It a multitude of groups developed this area, the City
would not get the 120 feet of right-of-way which would be required
in the future. He had driven this area and it war, a sees. it could
only get better for it could not get worse. The area was being used
as a dumpgcound. It developed as a planned development, it would be
much better for Denton. The entire Council had worked on this Issue
and studled It very carefully.
Council Member Chew stated that economics and the marketplace would
have a lot to do with this development,

TO: CITIZENS TRAFFIC SAFETY SUPPORT COMMISSION
PROM: Paul Iwuchukwu, Traffic Engineer Associate
SUBJECT: "No U-Turn" at Audra/McKinney
McKinney at Audra/Woodro%i is a very busy intersection,
Motorists at the Audra approach make U-Turns to fill up at the
P.J. gas station and convenience store. This creates a
t►azardous situation especially when long bed trucks and vans
run out of turning roow and need to back up and re-negotiate.
Even though this intersection has been signalized, chances for
rear-end and right-angle collisions still exist with these
U-Turns. Suppose the Woodrow-Audra phase is timed out and some
vehicles waiting for a U-Turning vehicle to complete ;ts
maneuver are trapped on McKinney, a chaotic situation could
result.
The staff is recommending that a "No U-Turn" sign he posted
there to eliminate the hazard.

ITEM N3 "NO U-TURN" SIGN AT MCKINNEY AT AUDRA/WOODROW (NORTH
APPQOAC - _
Paul Iwuchukwu, Traffic Engineer presented the
recommendation to the commissioners. He said the
problem was vehicles coming from the Audra approach
to the intersection make u-turn movements to enter
the PJ gas station and convenience store creating
adverse traffic conditions at that location. These
conditions cause a delay of traffic on all approaches
to that intersection. This could result in a rear
end collision or a right angle collision at the two
points.
John Tompkins said he thought the commission had
approved a median cut at this location a couple
months ago.
Jerry Clark said the owners of PJ's convenience store
had been given permission by Planning and Zoning to
cut the median but PJ's found it was too expensive.
STAFF RECOMMENDED: Approval

The total loss in revEnues from the non-participating cities is $30,494. In a
new proposal, the County has elected to pay $15,494 and reaNness the City of
Denton for the remaining $15,000. Other participating cities were not
reassessed. According to County officials, the City of Denton is the largest
user of the services of the County Health Department. In addition, there was a
concern that some of the participating cities would decline to contract with the
County at. a higher assessment.
In any event, the City of Denton would be res)onsible for payment of $66,742 for
environmental and clinical services for the current fiscal year. It is
anticipated that the recent assessment will be final. Keep in mind, however,
that a roll back is o good possibility at this point and could affect this
assumption. County officials are unable to anticipate what kind of impact a roll
back will have on the level of services or our final assessment for these
services.
It is the recommendation of the County Health Department Task Force to continue
to contract with the County for $66,742. In the meantime we will continue our
in-house study of feasibility for a City health operation as well as keep you
informed of any anticipated changes.

SUBJhCT: RESOLUTION CHANGING THE INTENSITY POLICIES IN EASTERN DENTON
BETWEEN U.S. HIGHWAY 380 AND 1-35
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends establishing
three moderate nodes at U.S. Highway 380, McKinney Street,
and 1-35.
SUMMARY:
In early 1986, the City Council considered a zoning request
on 690.8 acres. Two additional requests abutting the 690.8
acres were submitted to the City but were withdrawn by the
petitioner prior Fo a Planting and Zoning Commission public
hearing,
A joint study session was considered with the Planning and
Zoning Commission and City Council on September 9, 1986, The
Land Use Committee's preliminary recommendation indicates no
more than three (3) moderate nodes in this Brea.
BACKGROUND:
On June 25, 1986, representatives of Miller of Texas, Inc.
provided staff with a revised land plan that included all
three zoning requests on property from U.S. Highway 380 to
Paige/Pockrus Road. The staff reviewed the proposal and
provided the Miller of Texas representatives with the staff
comments on the proposal. One comment stated that the Com-
mission and Council must establish policies for this area
::afore staff could make a recommendation on the land use
question.
PROGRAMS, DEPARTMENTS_OR_UROUPS AFFECTbO:
All departments involved in the development process,
individuals residing jr, this area, and the citizens of Denton.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact is difficult to assess due to phasing of
any possible development and the economic situation at the
time of development. The City of Denton would experience
both costs and benefits; however, increased growth in the
U.S. Highway 380 and 1-3S

TO: CITIZENS TRAFFIC SAFETY SUE1POR'T COMMISSION
FROM: Paul Iwuchukwu, Traffic Engineer Associate
SUBJECT; Minute order 084908 on 135 h from Texas Department of
hlighways and Public Transportation:
The enclosed minute order from the State requests
that the City of Denton agree to cooperate in the
conversion of the frontage roads to one way operation
from State Sclioul Road in the City of Denton to
Turbevi lle Road in Hickory Creek consistent with the
planned improvements to 135 B.
The actual improvements to 135 E will be the widening
to 6 lanes from Turbeville Road in Hickory Creek/Lake
Dallas to Corinth Road in Corinth. The State feels
the service roads need to be one way a certain
distance in advance to support these improvements.
All busino,sses and residents in the effected area
from State School Road to Shady Shores road will be
notified by hand bill delivered to them by City staff.
Due to the value of the improvements being proposed
by the State, it seems advantageous to the City to
cooperate in this minute order. This will also show
Denton's cooperative efforts towards upgrading 135 E
through our neighbor cities to the south, Since the
next upgrade will extend to Denton, we should
seriously consider a cooperative spirit.
A letter from Corinth is enclosed showing their
support of the order. Lake Dallas and Hickory Creek
had not made final recommendations yet but W11
notify us when they do, hopefully before the October
6, meeting.
Safety is also a concern with two way service roads.
Accident reports will be available at the meeting for
review, There have been some very serious ones in
the past year, especially involving the ramps.
Considering all these areas, it seew; that the
positive aspects of this minute order are jnough that
0416h the City of Denton should support it.

get to the gas pumps. He said they had proposed to
close number 3 and eliminate one curb cut on Carroll
Boulevard. Closing two driveways would cut down on
business. He said they had talked to one of the gas
com anies in Denton, Texas and they hAve withdrawn
the r offer because of the situation. Mr. Hashemi
said no would appreciate the commission's
consideration in.leaving curb cut number 2.
John Thompkins asked the staff I one was traveling
north coming from the south on Carroll, assuming
driveway number 2 was closed, what was the
possibility of making a left turn across Hickory into
driucway numher 14 Would that present a danger?
ferry Clark said no.
Mohammed Hashemi said according to Section 8, Article
3 of the Denton Code certain require ants could be
made for truck delivery of gas and fool, He said for
a convenience store and gas station to operate they
would need access number 2,
STAFF xECUMMENDED : Denial of request
COMMISSIONERS* %'irginia Gallian made a motion to except
the staff recommendation that driveway
number 2 and 3 or 4 be closed. Doris
Chipman seconded the motion. It passed
unanimously.

the City staff to ground level. The staff wanted to
present this information to the commiision.
ITEM g6 MINUTE ORDER #84908 ON 135 H FROM TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF
HIGHUY ANFPUB T SPORTATIONt
Jerry Clark presented the request. He said David
Salmon recently attended a meeting held i.y the State
Department for all surrounding cities. The State
proposed to widen 135 in conjunction with the Boeing
plant from Turbeville Road in Hickory Creek/Lake
Dallas to Corinth Road in Corinth. They feel the
most cost effective way of doing it would result in
widening the road at the same time to 6 lanes. Thee
are stating that they would not be using those lane:a
until 1992, so the SDH 4 PT will button them off,
The affect it has on the City of Denton would be from
Shady Shores road to Mayhill and State School road,
The service roads would be changed to one way, We
feel it would be important to help the noighbor
cities to the south of us. There could be a
ossibilitK that the widening of the road would go as
Far as Highway 77 north of Denton in 19924
Traffic Safety Minutes page b of 8 pages
Ocrober 4, 1986
Jerry said everyone in the area had been notified by
handbill. The staff was not given enough time to
notify them in any other way.
Curtis Hawley from Oakmont Subdivision came forward.
He said he was not speaking in oppobition. Oakmont
owns all the property on the west side with the
egception of the car dealerships along the frontage
road. Had the City of Corinth approved the
proposal? Jerry Clark presented Mr. Fawley a copy of
the memo from Corinth approving it.
Larry Benson, president of Triangle Chevrolet came
forward. He said his company was part of the North
Texas Auto Ylex located on the service road between
the State School Road and Shady Shores road currently
on 13 acres. They plan in the near future to develop
another 14 acres into an automotive area. Within a
period of time, they would have a total of 27 acres
3n the area to better serve the citizens of Denton.
Mr. Benson said changing the access road to one way'
going south would severely hamper the sales and
service needs of the citizens of Denton. There was
only one exit off 13S to get into the Shady Shores
area and into the Auto Alex. He reiterated that he
was against changing the service road to one way.
Lewis Smith, a representative from the sales and
service department of the North Texas Auto-flex came
forward. He was in agreement in having the freeway
come further up but was not in agreement with
changing the service road i-o one way. 'there was
plans to add more franchises north and south of the
Auto-Flex making it the sole employer in that area.
For the last few months, they have been one of the
top S Oldsmobile dealerships in sales throughout the
United States. The vast majority of their employees
and customers are from Denton. They want to continue
to allow them good access into the Auto-Flex,
k.J. Button came forward. He said he was the owner
of Lakewood Estates and Lakewood Manufacturing home
sales at the corner of Mayhill road/State School road
and 13i. He also owned property in the Corinth
area. All the service roads would ultimately be one
way. If the State was going to widen stretches of
the road In the middle to six lanes, but not use It
for some period of time, it would only seen that the
changin of the service roads could be delayed as
well, vne way traffic does hurt businesses and any
delay could be helpful.
Traffic Safety Minutes
October 4, 1986 page 7 of 8 pages
Von Rodman, with Vdin Olds Cadillac of the Auto-flex
came forward. He said as previously stated 901 of
their employees 1:'Ive in Denton, Inadvertently, that
percentage of customers come from Denton as well. If
the ordinance was passed, all those people would be
inconvenienced by a four mile drive to get back to
Denton. Could there be a delay in changing the
service road to one way?
Jerry Clark said it was not a project of the City of
Denton. He thou ht the main reason the State was
trying to get th s cleared up was the service roads
would be used to carry traffic during construction.
Gilbert Berstein asked Jerry when he thought the
State would begin. Jerry said once all the
ordinances were passed it could be 12 to 13 months.
STAFF RECOMMENDED: Approval
COMMISSIONERS: Virginia Gallian made a motion to approve
the ordinance but to delay the
implementation until construction begins.
Vivian Edsiards seconded the motion. It
passed unanimously.
GENbRAL BUSINESS:
1. Virginia Gallian requested that Jerry Clark look at
North Texas State Universities S - 10 yr traffic plan
in relation to thoroughfares and report back to the
commission the affects they could have on surrounding
streets.
2. View Obstruction at the intersection of Alley "X" ai,d
Hickory:
Paul Iwucnukwu said Mr. Thomas Judd of 1011 West Oak
was requesting a solution be found to the view
obstruction that existed at thy, intersection of Alley
"X" and Hickory. The chief cause of the problem was
that there was a vertical crest curve just west of
the intersection. The vertical crest curve would
naturally limit the sight distance of the drive
approaching the intersection from the alley. Large
vans and pickup trucks park along the curb blocking
sight dista.nco as well. The alley way does not
belong to the Gl; ty. It Is a private access easement.
Maui said the staff had three recommendations for a
possibl9 solution to the problem:
1. Making Alley "X" one-way northbound
